2 Answers
The method to adjust the front and rear seats in a Passat is: 1. Push the small module on the side of the seat to adjust it forward or backward; 2. Lift the handle on the side of the seat to adjust it forward or backward. The Passat is a mid-size car with body dimensions of: length 4933mm, width 1836mm, height 1469mm, wheelbase 2871mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 68.5 liters. The Passat is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 110kW, maximum power speed of 5000rpm, maximum torque of 250Nm, and is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I've been driving my Passat B8 for almost five years, and adjusting the seat forward and backward is actually quite simple. If you have manual seats, just find a metal lever under the seat, lift it while pushing the seat slider forward or backward with your body, and you'll hear a click sound indicating it's locked. The electric version is even more convenient—there's a small control panel on the inner side of the door with forward and backward arrow buttons; press them, and the seat will automatically slide to your desired position. When adjusting, don't forget to fasten your seatbelt and ensure your sitting posture is comfortable and not awkward, so your legs won't get sore during long drives. For routine maintenance, I occasionally clean the seat rails with a damp cloth to prevent dust buildup that might hinder movement. If the seat gets stuck, first check if debris is blocking the slider. If you can't fix it yourself, take it to a repair shop as soon as possible to avoid compromising driving safety.
