    oh wow. this was one of the first tweaks i did when i played around with the VCDS (same as you just stumbled across it) and i confirm it only moves a few cm but i believe that's enough to save the foam in your seats. however i haven't been squished yet - touch wood hahaha

    Mine seems to have come right on its own I would say it moves more than 50mm back as I find i have to stretch to reach the pedals before it slides forward. Have it set to activate when I start the engine.

    Is there any option to raise the steering wheel at the same time ? Lexus are quite good at this, wheel up and seat right back.

    I held down preset 1 and seat returned to normal position and it hasn't recurred. I thought it was pretty funny but can see how it could potentially be problematic for someone who is older or larger or pregnant for example.
    Just a heads up, I seem to recall that bug from some years ago and from memory it sort of fell out of favour because of it. Imagine the problem if a pregnant woman had it happen to her, the result might not be nice.

    Probably hard to do with a manual wheel adjustment as you have to loosen the lock first

    Just updated mine via OBDeleven - a very easy adjustment to make. It moves in upon pressing the start button and back when I open the door to get out.
