Sport seat side bolsters

Quick question, when I inflate the side bolsters in my 997.2 GTS sport seats, they "relax" a bit within 24-48 hours. That's not normal, correct?

Depends... something else might be happening. If your car has memory seats, the bolster inflation level is included as one of those parameters. If you didn't set the bolster then resave to memory, and you have your key tied to a memory position, when you unlock your car the bolster will go back to the saved setting, which in your case sounds like softer than you want.

From the user manual of my 2009:


"You cannot store the position of the side bolsters of the adaptive sports seat"

I'm pretty sure on my '05 with the ***+ they will inflate or deflate to a set firmness stored on the memory, but it might just be lumbar that does this and not the bolsters.

But they should hold position for days on end once inflated, correct?
