ery work and my leather looks like an old cadi, all creased etc. I figure they will replace it all when I bring it in for the 3rd fix

Hey, anyone know if overseas S4's have the same issue?
In other words...those with recaros DO or DO NOT experience this?
My posit: If the rails are at fault, everyone would experince this worldwide. If the seats are the issue...the "fix" really hasn't been working for good reason.
My theory is that these US version seats simply can't handle the tq we're subjecting in braking, etc...
Josh@Achtuning or other seat swappers experience?
Takers?

I have a feeling this same issue has been prevalent every time audi have swapped seats for the US market. My old CQ rocked...but, honestly, less than the S4 is.

Any other car I've sat in, I can make the seatback incline(?) to the point where it is physically uncomfortable for me. That is, I feel I'm sitting too upright or pushed forward.
I cannot get to that point with my S4. In fact, I cannot get the seat upright enough for my taste. Anyone have this issue or noticed this? I sat in a new B6 S4 the other day, and I had no problem getting those Recaros nice and upright.
Back on topic....my seat rocks, too. I was told by my service advisor that it was the plastic gears inside the seat that are poorly designed, not the frame or frame rails.
