Comfort Seats D/c

[330i2X5]

Just got a call from dealer with a bulletin for Mar prod.
No more COMFORT SEATS in Mar prod due to supplier issue...just as we heard it here first on this forum.!

If you order Sports and Premium together normally you would get Comfort seats but now you get Sports seats from Mar on.

In US I understand that you have to pay extra to get Comfort , but doesnt matter now !

Thank God I was lucky to get these Comfort Seats on my Feb prod....with all those that have them saying they are the most comfortable auto seat ever I feel very happy indeed.

I hope for everyones sake they get another supplier and give the benefit of these seats to all.

what do you mean by comfort seats, i haven't heard such an option.

[330i2X5]

In the US I believe these seats come with the active ventilation package...seats are multi contour 20 way adjustable ....and have neck holsters that conform like on commercial airliners. !

here: pics illustrate well

in a brochure that i have it shows a picture of the front seats that look like what you call "comfort seats"; but here they're called "20-way multi-contour seats. please respond.

There are three types of seats for the United States.

i all the 20-ways the comfort seats adjust,
but what are the ten ways on the sport seats? that excludes lumbar, no?

[trueX5er]

I think it may exclude 2-way lumbar, but adds 2-way thigh support. But that's just a guess.

[xnsf]

10-way means power right?

2 - cushion forward/back
2 - cushion up/down
2 - cushion tilt up/down
2 - seatback recline
2 - ??? (is the thigh support powered now? like on the E60s)
excluding
4 - lumbar up/down and in/out

[trueX5er]

no it's manual."... seats with 2-way manual thigh support..." But then we're left with 12.
Is Lumbar only 2-way? I thought it was 4-way, too.

[trueX5er]

OH! Headrests are power up/down.
