Default Lumbar and side support on F-Type R

Has anyone had issues with the right side of the drivers seat not being comfortable? It seems I am sitting in the seat at a angle and my right kidney hurts no matter how I adjust the seat or inflate or deflate the the air bladders.

After a hour or two I almost can't stand to drive any more.

well the seat is firm and is difficult for my back

30 min in it on dynamic mode with sport shifts = 3 hours in my Cayenne !

Take it in and have the dealer look at it. The performance seats are extremely comfortable (except for the goofy hard piping down the middle of the seat back). If the seat feels like it's at an angle, it is likely that the 2 bolsters aren't indexed together properly.

I had a similar issue with my seat. I found that raising the front part of the bottom of the seat helped a lot. Basically try and bring your knees toward your chest more. You may also have to drop the back of the seat a little bit too to create a front high point a low rear point on the bottom of the seat.
