I find the my new VRS front seat kills my lower back on longer trips. I had the sports pack seats in the Mk6 Golf which were significantly better, and an e90 BMW with Msports seats, again much much better.
The main issue is the lack of tilt adjust so there is a huge gap under my thighs / knees. The electric memory seats apparently DO have the tilt adjust. I notice the memory seats are priced as $1300 as a line item in the comfort pack and the memory module is part of the seat so it should be simple coding and retrofit but Skoda told me it would cost 10k!
and not for sale separately. Only option left is longer bolts and spaced for the front seat mount unless there is manual tool adjustment I can do.
Other issues with the seats is lack of support where the vertical recline meets the horizontal part. The Golf Sports seats has bolstering there but the VRS doesn't. A quick google and seats in the VRS are a common complaint (mostly the lack of tilt).
Anyone else run into this? Anyone know a good wrecker? I was happy to buy a new seat for $1300 but 10k was a bit much!
