Defective seat pad? - Benzworld.org

I have a 3 month old CLK. I have noticed that I am already getting an indentation in the seat pad that is taking longer and longer to return to normal. I am normal weight. Is any one else having this problem?

How to say this ..... its normal. I mean sitting there and timing the cushion rebound isnt normal but putting a sack of potatoes on a rubber form insert and noting that it is compressed is entirely normal.

If all else fails ..... just buy multi-contour seats.

No, it is not (should not be) normal. I have a 91 BMW with just shy of 200K miles, and the seat cushion shows no depression at all.

The new CLK seat - and it is only the left side and not the right side of the seat pad - will not spring back into shape. And I do not sit there and time the cushion rebound. The depression from yesterday was still in the seat this morning. This can't be right after so little use, and I'd like to know if others are experiencing the same thing.
