Have to agree the 18 ways are so comfy.
By far ththe most comfy seats in any car I have driven. Even after driving for a reasonable amount of time still feel great. If the wife ever kicks me out I know where I will be sleeping 😂
As already been said each person should test the variants that suit them self’s. Even the 8 and 14 ways I found very good too.

It’s a shame the bolsters on the 18 way are not held as part of the memory though.

Mine actually are - on the key at least. Haven’t checked the buttons.

Ahh that’s possible and good to know. I only use 1 key. Is yours a MY17?
The buttons definitely don’t save them. It’s the same for 18 ways in the 911 too 😟

It’s the side bolsters only which don’t save in memory. All other functions are fine.

Yep. MY17. I’ll try the buttons ASAP and report back.

Howdy, I love the 18way adjustment, when looking for a Macan seeing anything less just seemed to feel like I was being short changed, BUT that said, before I purchased my Turbo, I had a Diesel and another Turbo, and all 3 give me a sore bum after 30minutes. Its the seat base. It feels thin and feels like there's a hard plate underneath; the rest of the seat adjustments, bolters etc are great and its quality leather, but my 19 year old BMW coupe neevr felt this uncomfortable even after a 5hr non-stop drive. Luckily my commute to work is under 30mins, maybe even under 20 in a Turbo LOL. aside: so bad I'm thinking about buying a memory foam cushion

There’s either something wrong with your seat or your bum! My Turbo’s 18 way seat is all day comfy, as are all the other Macan seats I’ve sat in.

That's a cheeky comment Nick, some may say "bumist" even. In these socially enlightened times even a bum is entitled to some respect :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
