Default New Owner with a question.

High everyone. Just got a 2011 R design. Very sweet looking car. Best looking hatch IMO.

I wanted to know if there is a way to push the seat back about 2 inches or so. I'm 6 feet talk and when the seat is all the way back it feels unnatural for me. My knee is hunched up and I have to tilt the steering wheel up to even get an ok driving position. I had a BMW where they had a clip that you could remove so the seat goes back further.

Thank you.

If you have the power adjust seats your max settings (using the buttons) is all your going to get out of them. If you decide to poke around under the seats (mechanical or power) be very careful not to disturb the sensors under the seats...they can throw a code (with battery connected) and it's then that's got to be cleared. There's a sensor for everything in these cars and some of them are very sensitive...
