Memory seats tweak - Easy Access

[passat_r36]

oh wow. this was one of the first tweaks i did when i played around with the VCDS (same as you just stumbled across it) and i confirm it only moves a few cm but i believe that's enough to save the foam in your seats. however i haven't been squished yet - touch wood hahaha

Mine seems to have come right on its own I would say it moves more than 50mm back as I find i have to stretch to reach the pedals before it slides forward. Have it set to activate when I start the engine.

Is there any option to raise the steering wheel at the same time ? Lexus are quite good at this, wheel up and seat right back.

So had my first gremlin with this feature the other day...

Got in the car and started, seat started to move forward...then continued on and on in forward motion until I was squashed up against the steering wheel.

I held down preset 1 and seat returned to normal position and it hasn't recurred. I thought it was pretty funny but can see how it could potentially be problematic for someone who is older or larger or pregnant for example.

Just a heads up, I seem to recall that bug from some years ago and from memory it sort of fell out of favour because of it. Imagine the problem if a pregnant woman had it happen to her, the result might not be nice.

Probably hard to do with a manual wheel adjustment as you have to loosen the lock first

Just updated mine via OBDeleven - a very easy adjustment to make. It moves in upon pressing the start button and back when I open the door to get out.
