Seat height

[ChrisHC]

My wife, who claims to be of normal height (aka Short*rs*), finds the seat a bit low. Is there any recommended way of raising it a little?

push the backrest lever down and pull it up? should do it itself but the gas struts get a bit tired

^ That's just on sports seats I believe.

Comfort seats are height adjustable? Live and learn.

All E30 front seats are adjustable for height, and my missus, who is only just tall enough not to be legally required to use a booster seat, has never complained about the seat height.
This is the only adjustment we ever move on the seat - she drives with it in the fully up position, and I drive in the fully down position, which also moves the seat back.

You live and learn, I looked at the seat and studied the handbook but found no way to do that, other than that the seat tilts bodily. Must try harder.

After over 2 years of owning my car I never knew you could do this. Just tried it and it worked a treat!

Thank you! I don't feel so bad now.
