I've had similar problems. Lately I haven't noticed it though. I think I finally found the right adjustments on the seats to make them comfortable to me. Strangly, I think the main thing that helped was to stop using the lumbar support the seat has.

Back Pain here too

My lower back has also been hurting me too, I agree with you other guys. This especially true, when you try to rest your arm on the door seal.

Try all of these:

A) Dont drive with anything in your back pockets
B) Set the front of the seat (the black colored control closer to the wheel on the seat) all the way up
C) Set the rear of the seat all the way down
D) Turn the lumbar so it is all the way back (ie no bump)
E) Adjust closeness to wheel and seat back to this position


This got rid of alot of the back pain I had when driving.

I thought it was just me but, I get lower back pain everytime I drive it...I wish that the upper back of the seat was more broad...cause my shoulders don't fit, and I'm 5'11 and only 20 years old.

+1 on the wallet as well, took one drive to figure that out...seats are great for me...and I'm 6'2", still plenty of headroom left.

5'11" seats fit me just fine. I just wish mine had memory so I don't have to take days finding the perfect position everytime I move the seat during a car wash.
