| LI91.10-P-076097 | 2026-05-04. Service bulletin. SEATS. Complaint Play/noise at height adjuster or in seat guide rail on front seats Cause Tolerances and variations in the manufacturing process Remedy 1. Inspect Seat Height Adjuster Barcode Label (See Pic.1) • Locate the barcode label on the cross tube of the seat height adjuster. • In isolated cases, the barcode label may be located on the front side of the cross tube. If not visible, remove the seat cushion to access the label. 2. Evaluate Production Status If Production Status is LOWER than E108 → Replace the seat frame base with the height adjuster motor. If Production Status is E108 or HIGHER → Do NOT replace parts. Please submit a TIPS case to the Body/Chassis/Entertainment inbox and attach: • Video of the noise concern • Photo of the barcode label To improve analysis quality, ensure the video meets the following criteria: • Seat installed in the vehicle • Quiet workshop environment • Steady and smooth camera movement • Good lighting on the suspected noise area • Recording with two people (one filming, while the other is creating the noise-causing movement) • Noise‑causing movement must be clearly visible • Camera position: From the rear footwell, looking forward at the front seat • Verbal explanation included in English or German |
| LI82.00-P-080029 | 2026-03-11. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; SEATS. Complaint The seat may no longer be adjustable using the electric seat adjustment switch on the door module. No related error is stored in the quick test. Cause Under certain conditions, the electric seat adjustment switch may remain in sleep mode. It is then not possible to adjust the seat using this switch. This is a software error. Remedy To restore functionality, perform the following steps: 1. Remove the door trim from the affected door. 2. Unplug and reconnect the plug of the electric seat adjustment switch (No. 2 in the picture in work instruction AR91.29-P-2522WT) to perform a reset of the switch. Note: The switch does not need to be removed for this. 3. To prevent this problem from recurring, the current software version A2239029930 should be installed on the switch module “Seat Adjustment Switch Group …”. Example: S22 - Select S22 – “Seat Adjustment Switch Group, front left” (SSE-VL) → Adaptations → Control unit update → Update control unit software. If the vehicle already has SW version A2239029930, there is another cause. Please open a TIPS case to the Body/Chassis/Entertainment inbox if the issue persists with the new software installed. |
