    The other day I stretched in my seat to get something out of my pocket and pipes/broke the lumbar support on the right hand side of the seat. Is this serviceable or am I SoL and should head to the junk yard for a new seat

    Hello Everyone, I just purchased my first VW CC, it was used. I noticed when I had a passenger riding with me that the lumbar support button itself is broken. It works in one direction, but the others are broken. It's as if the button itself is broken. Anyways, I ordered a new button, and I'd...

    Hello B6ers! My lumbar support mechanism is not working. I can hear the motor whine, but it does not seem to be moving anything. Perhaps the cable (or whatever) that connects the motor to the lumbar mechanism is broken. Short of cutting off the leatherette fabric, does anyone have ideas on how I...

    Hello, I have a problem with a electric lumbar support in driver seat. It works fine for up-down-back but when I press forward button it makes strange noise like something scratches inside...

    08 Passat w 22k miles. When I push the lumbar support button (the round 4 way) on the drivers side seat either forward or backward, nothing seems to happen and I hear a clicking sound coming from the seat. Passenger side seems to work fine. Anyone have any ideas?

    My '98 with manual (heated) cloth seats just lost its lumbar support. Got in and something snapped. I saw a bunch of posts from ~2004 where there used to be pics but no pics were still working. I'm trying to decide how big a job it is... if anybody happens to have pics, especially of how to get...

    Friends, Help me with some advice. I purchased my 2009 Passat 2 years ago as a CPO vehicle. For the entire time that I have owned the vehicle the front passenger seat manual lumbar control knob does not seem to do much when rotated. You can feel only the slightest difference in your back...

    The passenger side lumbar knob came off on my 2004.5 wagon, and after inspecting, the cause seems to be the shaft tube on the handle that slips over the shaft cracked, loosening the knob, and the seat belt snagged on it. Soo , I buy a new knob. I see that the seat has a shaft with thread on...

    Hi all. My drivers seat lumbar switch just died on my '09 Wagon. Does any one know the cost of a new switch, the part # and the best place to buy it? Could also use a "seat diagram" to show me how to replace it myself. Thanks! :wrench:

    This is just a quick writeup to let you know how I fixed my sunken lumbar support. Dealership service and parts both told me the tension wire cannot be ordered seperately. I am working on a 2001.5 cloth seat, manual adjustors, no heater. You should remove the seatback from the seat or be...

    Hello all, I've got a 1999 B5 1.8T and the driver's side lumbar control knob is broken internally (I turned it a little too far :oops: ) Anyways, I've managed to completely remove the knob parts from the seat (not hard and I am going to post a how-to) but now I am wondering if anyone knows...
