Default Love my new 2007 SR4...but the seat is killing my legs! HELP

My wife got a new 2007 RS4 just after I got my used 2005. Two Scion family now.

She really likes it but says the driving position is giving her sciatica or something like it in the right leg. Real pain after 30 minutes of driving.

She borrowed a lower back seat support pad which she says seems to help but it still is not quite confortable

Anybody else out there have this issue? If so, what can one do?

TIA for any suggestions

I'll try this afternoon, stick_1NZ, but what actually did you do? I assume you did something to increase the front elevation of the drivers seat so that the seat slants more and the front is raised higher than the back. Correct?

This would seem to lift the front edge of the seat to support the drivers legs better.

Any special tools required?

Thanks
