'03 Seating Position

Hello everyone -

I'm a new owner of a new TL (EBP) and have one complaint - I can't seem to find a comfortable seating position in the driver's seat. Seems like when I find that position the key fob hits my knee.

I suppose the simple solution would be to put the ignition key on another key ring - which would be a pain.

Anybody else experience this - any ideas?

Otherwise - this is a great car!!

Thanks all - great forum

Are you one of those guys that sits on top of the wheel, or are tall? Or, are you one of those guys who sits leaned back, but still tall? If you are too close move the seat back, obviously if your legs are long enough to bend and have the key fob touch your knee, then you can reach the pedal. Or if your key chain is long, then just get a normal one. To be honest with you this is one of the weirdest questions ever. No one has ever asked how to be more comfy in a seating position.

Imagine: Click seat bottom up for 2 seconds, click seat back foward for 1 second.

Weird question - maybe?

Yup - I do know how to change the position of a seat, the keychain is the normal length and I'm 5' 10"-

I was just wondering if anyone else had the same problem -

Frankly - when I did a search on this forum I noticed that there were other posts that people had made saying they had trouble getting a confortable seat position.

Guess I'll just slice off the top of my kneecap!

Once you find your position, be happy the 02+ have mem seat. If mine didn't have mem seat I would never drive it. It's my wifes car. She's 4'11"" I'm 6'5"
