It pays to read the manual!

In the year and a half I've owned my RRS, I've always thought the drivers seat could do with a bit more support in the upright bolsters department.

Whilst flicking through the manual last night to figure something else out, I happened upon the section for seating which detailed the inflation/deflation buttons for the bolsters and seat back.... Rolling Eyes

Never knew they were there, and they haven't been obvious to feel when I've adjusted the seat, but now I've given it a bit of adjustment they have gone someway to provide the support I thought was missing Embarassed . 2016 VW Golf GTD DSG

Don't know if you've noticed, but there also 4 buttons on the drivers door sill top, press one and the window goes up/down - saves opening the door sometimes Whistle Rolling with laughter

Even on the HSE? That sounds like Autobiography equipment to me! Wink

Seriously though, reading the manual really did highlight how well spec'ed the car is. Thumbs Up 2016 VW Golf GTD DSG

Yes, you're right, I'm sure there are a fair few features that people don't know exist or are overlooked.
For me, it's the annoying ones like FBH timed/remote where most of the equipment is there, but LR deem to charge extortionate sums for them.

Off Topic, but it's one of the things I like about my BMW, there are a number of features (electric closing of the boot by button or the remote being one) that you can enable via a simple bit of 'coding'. I spoke to my local garage and they are more than helpful in that regard, very different story to LR Wink ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

RTFM - should be a sticky Laughing

Sadly I am one of those people who usually sit in every vehicle when I get home after buying it and read the handbook and test all the switches - drives SWMBO mad but she can't work anything in the house or car and is always ringing me or shouting "how do I work the ....." Rolling Eyes

I bought another sport this time because I couldn't be bothered to read the manual again - must be getting old Whistle Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Still hoping for a S2 one day!
