Sport seat bolsters..
Ok i have the Msport seats which i believe are the same as all other sport seats.
When i tighten my sides, only only one seems to get tighter "larger" than the left side and i have to do it almost every time i get in the car. It seems to deflate after a few hours by itself.. is this normal?

Try comparing to the passenger seat.
Doesn't sound normal.

i have been having the same issue. i know the bolsters arent remembered inthe memory setting, but no one else uses my car so i never have to change the position.
if i tighten them all the way, after about an hour of driving, i am able to tighten them more. and not just alittle bit, but a whole lot. in addition i can almost feel them loosen over a long drive. i also notice that when they are about 50% tight or more i only feel the left side tightening. anyone else have this issue? is it normal? shuould we be taking a trip to out dealers? ps. 2013 335i msport |

They should deflate only after you turn off the ignition (to let you out..), but remember your setting (per key) and inflate when you get back in the car. Definitely not normal only one side working. And it should do this for both front seats.
This, assuming it is the same as my '07 X5 with comfort seats anyway. |

No. I adjusted mine a few times when I took delivery just to find the most comfortable setting and once I found it, I haven't had to change it/them. Always the same

I just tested mine. My seat bolsters inflates equally on both sides all the way to the maximum. In my experience, they don't lose air and deflate. I only adjust my bolsters when I go into speed racer mode.... which is pretty rare. Otherwise they retain their plumpness.
