Lumbar won't stay put (1 Viewer)

[Snooperstyle]

Is it normal for the lumbar setting to not stay put? Mine seems to "deflate" fairly quickly after increasing it. Anybody else have this issue?

I have same issue. I wonder if the air system has leaks as we saw with the frequent passenger side where the air hose comes loose?

I remember seeing this issue in the 4runner forums for 5th generation 4runners. Some people said it was very quickly losing air. My 14-year old 4runner will hold the lumbar for a few days before losing air. But my GX is losing it very quickly. I guess I will open a ticket with the dealer. Can anybody else on here confirm that theirs holds for long periods?

My lumbar support hasn’t been a problem since I adjusted it to near max 3 weeks ago. It seems to be holding

I thought maybe I was going crazy but I think mine is losing air very quickly. I just parked my car for 30 minutes and the lumbar was noticeably different

I have the same issue. I even zip tied all the hoses to try to keep it from bleeding out.

Happens on mine too - first issue

I had my dealer fix it a few weeks back, and they said the hose was half way off and they fixed it, but they didn’t. Mine still deflates pretty fast.

I just got a 2024 OT (non plus) with no passenger lumbar control?

The spec sheet just says: "
NuLuxe® trimmed, 8-way power-adjustable, heated and ventilated
front seats with adjustable headrests"... it doesn't mention a difference between driver and passenger anywhere I can see.

Is this normal? Does anyone know what trim levels get a matching drivers and passenger seat...?

I have an OT+ and my drivers lumbar bag stays inflated for about 20-30 mins then deflates. Dealer is clueless and says they can’t duplicate.

Yeah that’s what mine says. I’m over it. Also has a weird fan noise while parked. Fan noise in the rear of the car outside… junk

I just recently discovered this issue on ours. Just turned over 5K miles. It's wife's truck and I'm the one that uses lumbar so I just assumed it deflated when the seat was on her setting. Recently drove it a few days straight without her and noted it had gone flat.

Just another list of small annoying things we expected on a 1st gear design. Kind of disappointing that's what consumers are used to.

Same here. They said it works as intended

If it was a life vest they would say the same thing sadly. You are not sinking - just not floating…:

I may dig in tonight and find the issue. I’ll report back. I’ve had the seat back off once but I couldn’t find the bleed down

Did the Viagra help??

My lumbar support seems to hold. Only 2,000 miles.

Its a 'known' issue - there is a valve in the seat that leaks
