Driver's Seat Comfort?
So I've had my new IS for a few weeks, and initially the driver's seat was comfortable, but as the weeks have gone by, it seems the seat is growing more uncomfortable? It has the power lumbar support, however even when it is fully retracted it feels like there is a bar going across the back of the seat. Anyone else having comfort issues?

The only disappointment with the power leather seats is the lumbar support that does not raise or lower in the seat. Over the first few weeks the seat was adjusted several times to get the right personal fit. Try different adjustment settings until you find one that works for you. The seats are very good, and with all the available adjustments, it's all about getting the settings dialed in.

Im having trouble finding that "sweet spot" with the seat lol. im 5'10" and I don't like sitting to far back but if I sit to far back I feel like I cant see. so when I raise the seat to the perfect height I bang my knees when I get in the car. hopefully ifi keep playing with it ill figure it out. as for me the seat are pretty comfortable although I do notice my neck starts to hurt me sometimes if I rest my head on the headrest for to long. that might just be me though

Sorry to hear that. For me, 3 months in, these are still the most comfortable seats I've ever had.

I have the Nuluxe foam injected. Seemed a little narrow at 1st but as stated they seem to have adapted to my body type. Took a 1500 mile trip and was comfortable the whole way. The same trip in my Genesis and my legs hurt un the back of the thigh. Acura makes probably the best seats I've had.

I purchased my IS350 two weeks ago, and already have 1500 miles on it (long commute to work). My issue is my tailbone is killing me. I feel that same bar under my butt felling. I have poked around the seat and think there just isn't enough padding. I have adjusted the seat position and lumbar every possible way. Can't believe my awesome new car would have such an odd issue. By the way it is Nuluxe heated and ventilated.
I will call service tomorrow and see what their thoughts are...

My GS (leather) has done the same thing. They continually get less supportive as the days go by. This is expected with leather as it breaks down overtime. Without a doubt i prefer the nuluxe seats in my IS and they are still as comfortable as the day i bought the car.

Mine is comfortable & got better over time...but for some reason I find the passenger seat uncomfortable around the shoulders.
Even in the test drive at the dealership I noticed it when my wife was driving.
I don't really care though, cause i'll rarely be in that seat.
