Question about lumbar support?
Hey guys... I had been meaning to ask about this.
I don't notice all that much of a difference (min - max) when I adjust the lumbar support. Anyone else noticed this? Also, have any tall drivers had a tough time finding a comfortable seating position? I'm 6'3", and although I think I FINALLY have the most comfortable configuration set up, it still doesn't feel 100% right.

The lumbar helps but a small pillow will do wonders for your back
Try lowering the seat bottem and then play with the tilt and recline of it to give you
some headroom, set the back rest to support most of your back- add a slip on pillow to the headrest if it doesnt adjust to your liking
I have to drop the seat a few inches after wife drives car!

Sounds odd. My lumbar adjustments are very noticeable. I typically keep mine on minimum because much more than that and it feels like there is a basketball against my lower back.
For me the TL seats took a lot of getting used to due to the protruding lumbar and the way the upper part sinks away from your back.

Hmm! Two very different answers. Interesting. I'll try and follow your advice, 01tl4tl... if no help I'll get it checked out.

The lumbar support is very noticable, but as in most other cars I've driven, it's not really in the right place. I hits me in the thoracic vertabrae, not my lumbar. A small cushion at the bottom of the seat back works better.

The power lumber does a fine job. In fact, TL's multi adjustable power driver seat is very comfortable. I drove 5 hours straight and didn't feel any discomfort.
