Are you telling me it can be moved ? Wow I thought it was fixedNeil1911 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 28, 2024 7:06 pmNo barb, nor insult really, I wouldn't, have found your posts too helpful, interesting and constructive, until this one that is I was just pointing out that none of is are perfect and if one of us notices a useful little thing that we'd overlooked or forgotten (and I wouldn't bet against the "fm" having the odd gap) and decide to flag it up to others then being harangued with the knee jerk "rtffm" seems a bit harsh. I'd take a different line if some dope posts a question about how to adjust the driver's seat though!
Handy tips

On a previous Merc’ I had, there was something similar, only it was activated automatically, by a rear end shunt.
Found that out by having been rear ended, only slightly though. I wondered why the seating felt different. The owner’s manual which explained what had occurred. And went onto say that a special tool supplied was needed to return it to its original setting. This special tool was nowhere to be found, but the dealers supplied the missing piece of kit, FOC.

I'm pretty sure the Macan headrests won't do that, however, I HAVEN'T CHECKED THE F'IN MANUAL!

Neil,
Why not take a drive out and when somebody is driving very close behind you, slam on those fantastic Porsche brakes, other car wont be able to stop in time, and you can then get practical demonstration if the Porsche headrests are adaptive??
Only an idea, infact could be a "Handy Tip"
Cheers GTB

I’m sure in time, with all this new tech’ coming in now.
Rear end shunts ( If we’re still driving cars) will be a thing of the past. As they will have proximity sensors on them, that will automatically apply the brakes on a following vehicle, if it gets too close. Like forward facing adaptive braking now.

I’m sure there will still an Ocean of lunatics, out there. Drunk drivers, blind drivers, OAP’s whose reaction times are measured in days. Boy racers, and possibly a few sports car drivers, who like to show off (poorly).Bluesnose1812 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 01, 2024 10:54 amIf there were no RTAs how would insurance companies make any moneyTheTraveller wrote: ↑Fri Mar 01, 2024 10:33 am I’m sure in time, with all this new tech’ coming in now.
