My bet is yours is disconnected, all I had to do to fix mine was firmly reseat it.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I have a 2000 911 cabriolet with dual power seats. The driver seat has the ability to go up and down, but the passenger seat does not seem to, and is much higher than the drivers seat. The previous owner says the passenger seat never had the ability to go up and down. Is this true?
thanks

Thanks!
Sadly I have decided to sell my beloved RS4 because I recently got engaged and will be moving overseas for several months. I am and will be driving my R32 as a daily.
I am the 2nd owner and have owned it for approximately 6 months.
The car is located in NJ.
Current mileage: 48,600 (will go up very slowly as I do drive it once or twice a week)
No accidents and I have the CARFAX report to back it up.
Misano Red exterior
Silver (white) interior
Carbon fiber trim
Sunroof delete (1 of 23 I believe so very rare)
Brand new clutch, PP, and flywheel about 1k miles ago
Lower control arms and bushings replaced 1k miles ago
Transmission repaired under warranty 1k miles ago
Rear main seal and slave cylinder replaced
Brand new hood strut
Brand new glove box lid
Brand new armrest lid
Replaced clutch switch under warranty
Replaced all coil packs under warranty
Replaced alternator/serpentine belt, pulley and tensioner about 3 months ago while replacing torque mount
All fluids have been flushed
Stoptech Stainless Steel brake lines
Oil changed twice with Motul Specific during ownership
Re-wrapped the driver's seat due to wear so it looks brand new now
Newly powder coated wheels with absolutely Zero scratches.
Michelin Pilot Super Sport with less than 3k miles
Alignment done about 3 weeks ago
Carbon cleaning done by the previous owner last October.
Following aftermarket parts have been professionally installed during my ownership:
034 torque mount
034 transmission mount
034 engine mount
034 rear differential carrier mount bushings
Apikol diff mount
Stoptech SS brake lines
so basically all the aftermarket mounts you can install
Previous warranty work:
I had this high pitch whine coming from the transmission so I had it completely overhauled thru warranty. It only took them 3 days from the time the shop initiated the claim to the time the claim got approved. Several worn out synchos, gears, and bearing have been replaced under warranty and at the same time I had the shop install brand new clutch, PP, and flywheel (all oem). I also had them replace the rear main seal and slave cylinder.
Lower control arms and bushing have been replaced under warrant at the same time.
On a separate claim they covered engine mounts, clutch switch, and coil packs due to check engine light.
Exterior condition:
Overall the paint is still in great condition with deep shine. It does have some scratches and imperfections here and there but nothing you wouldn't expect from a 8-9 year old car and nothing that stands out and begs for a repaint.
Interior:
Nearly flawless. Seats look super clean especially the driver's seat with the entirely new leather.
The steering wheel in the photos is not included. The original steering wheel will be included unless the buyer wants the face-lift wheel at an extra cost, which isn't cheap at all.
The car runs strong without any hiccups and feels amazing after all those mounts have been installed.
The car needs nothing at the moment except a new owner who will care and enjoy it like I have.
Price: $37,800 OBO
If you have any questions please feel free to PM me or email me.

I just had this issue on my 2001 Cab... it was the drive cable being disconnected from the motor under the seat. I removed the seat bolts and tilted the seat back... when you look under the seat there will be a cable in a white plastic sheath that goes from the rail to one of the motors. My bet is yours is disconnected, all I had to do to fix mine was firmly reseat it. FYI

Turns out the switch is bad. (wont go down, does everything else) Maybe there is a way to touch two wires together and just drop the seat?
Anyone know where I can get a switch? (Porsche wants 500 bucks)
