Yes, I find the same, the seat moves alone when I open the driver door, but no all the times, certainly the most, but no allways, even if i shut off the engine or not. But only moves the back of the seat, never moves any other part. Its very very strange, sometimes the back is almost like in a bed position. its very disturbing.

I've been to Montevideo, loved it! Took a picture of the Queen Mary in the harbour. Just inside the port gates is the turret gun rangefinder from the Graf Spee.

I suspect the Ghost of Captain Langsdorff is using your XC90 for naps. Being from a neutral country the Volvo is a wise choice.

With apologies for going off-topic and any offence caused by mentioning Graf Spee or it's Captain.

..incredible isn't it when you listen to this thread - how did we cope before memory seats, how do we cope when the car can't work out which key is being used. Fantastic - I tell you one thing - it's bloomin' annoying when you get in a car that hasn't got it.
I've got an Omega Elite that has memory seats - it's soooo irritating having to press the button and wait for the seat to finish moving before I can get in it after my Wife has been driving it - the Volvo - it's already on the move as I open the door - brilliant.
Bit like rain sense wipers/heated seats/cruise control/auto dimming rear view mirror - once you've had them - there's no going back :-)

Totally agree seriously miss them when going out in her car . Shame the rear view mirror can't be linked to this as with everything else moving this seems a pia .

Before you know it the car will be doing it all for us. I chose my Lotus Carlton over an M5 because I wanted something that didn't do it for me (and because I'm wired wrong when it comes to buying cars!).
