Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My car has the option code for driver and passenger seat comfort seats. Can someone tell me how these differ from "standard" seats. My car doesn't have supple leather.

POST 2Original post

hmmm, never heard of comfort seats on a 996? I know they have them on the Cayenne.

POST 3Original post

I saw them on a 911 Anniversary model. A bit wider than the regular seat. At least they felt like it to me.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

It is option code 437 and 438 for the left and right seats respectively.

POST 5Original post

I have them on mine. It has an additonal 4 way lumbar support on both Driver and Passenger seat. You can pump air into the seat support points.

POST 6Original post

That 4 way lumbar feature seems to have come standard on my 01 C4. Or one of other options... supple leather, full leather, heated, memory, etc...

POST 7Original post

Is your a 40th Anniv edition? That is the only car that I'm aware of that has these Comfort seats and as far as I can tell, they are standard seats with the "special" 40th Anniv leather perforation. I believe the 40th comes standard with Sport Seats and the Standard seats are an option in the form of "Comfort Seats". Make sense.

POST 8Original post

Which are more comfortable for you????? the sporrts seats seem so narrow and uncomfortable...

POST 9Original post

I am 6'2" and 210. The sport seats were too snug for me. Comfort seats felt fine.

POST 10Original post

Well, I'm 5'10", 165 lbs and the sport seats fit me like a glove with great backand lumbar support. I've always loved the look of the sport seats with the color keyed hard backs as well. This is the kind of option you really need to drive in awhile, not just sit in at the dealers lot.

POST 11Original post

POST 12Original post

Our 99 996 had sports seats but our 01 C4 has "comfort" seats. Having driven both completely coast to coast I would never voluntarily do that again with sport seats. The 4-way lumbar is a godsend. Some years ago Ford had comfort seats with adjustable lumbar, bolsters, and thigh supports, why were they discontinued?

POST 13Original post

I also have comfort seats but no lumbar adjustment. What's up with that?

POST 14Original post

I thought that comfort seat option meant the power seats.
