On the manual seats,does the entire bottom move up and down?

Reason I ask,is my seat only the part closest to the seat back moves up and down.

It makes the seat tilt towards the front,and super uncomfortable........

I noticed this also. The higher up I go the more angled I am. I keep it lower for this reason.

This is an older thread, but regarding the way they tilt - as mentioned, the tilt pivots around the back so that the higher the seat, the less angle (bucket?) there is. So sitting up high makes the seat more like a dining room chair and that can be uncomfortable on long trips.

But ... you can add seat jackers to raise the front of the seat and offset that "flattening out" of the seat as it raises. That doesn't help if you're tall, but for us short people, it does (but it also makes it higher to get into the seat too!).
