First thing I press when starting is the S button, I just love a tight seat.......

mines always on, Feels that little bit special when you do push the S button.

S Button on when the car's warm, but i've de-selected seat action for S Button as it's purely a gimmick & i have the seat set exactly as i want it anyhow.

The one thing i miss from the M5 is the Adaptive seats, which is a proper feature & what the seat bolsters should do in the RS4.

Turned mine off after a few uses, it just seems a bit of a gimmick and I find I use the s button more with the seat off for some reason.

I always have the S button pressed - Whats the point of having it otherwise?

S button is part of my ignition sequence, with the seat bolsters on.

I'm laughing; S button around town - no thanks.

Then again I dont have valved exhausts so it doesnt make any sound difference anyway.

I like the bolsters I think they give that added adrenaline rush just as you prepare for some racy speed, nothing like having your ass squeesed just as you're getting excited.

After my visit to MRC the S button now genuinely switches the car between maps so mine is on most of the time!

As an aside, am i getting old and miserable or does anyone else wish the S symbol in the clock display was red in keeping with all other lights rather than green?!
