Default Programming the memory seats?

I've searched and read the owners manual and cannot get the seat to stay still. I have managed to set my desired memory position, but I cannot get it to stop moving once I get out of the car. Are there any videos showing step by step?

It's driving me crazy.

The seat movement on exit is a personalization setting in the stereo.

I couldn't find it in the menu options. I figured I'd throw it up on here.

I hated that f-ing function for months. Have to hit the "main" button under the volume ****. It is in there under personalization I believe.

If you can't find it, make sure the parking brake is set. Won't let you access the personalization menu without it.

I couldn't get to that menu, that what is frustrating the hell out of me. I tried with the engine on and also just the ignition turned, but not the engine on. I could only get to the radio options.

This isn't true for me. Could be a model revision though.

I tried locating with the radio off and it wouldn't even pull the menu up, just kept showing the Cadillac crest.

As embarrassing as it is, I kept trying to use the right dial when looking for the Main menu, not realizing the tiny menu button.

User error.

I have the same problem with my V. I get to the "Feature Programming" prompt but it won't let me select it.

Any suggestions?

thanks, --joe

I just turned off the personal settings off completely. All I really care about is being able to adjust the seats, making sure all the power options work and being able to disable TC. Good luck .

If anyone could help me with this, it drives me nuts.

I'm a new V owner, and I am the ONLY person that drives the car. So I set all my settings to Driver 1. And it seems like every time I get in the car no telling whether or not it will be on Driver 1 or 2. How do I get it to stay on Driver 1 UNLESS I change it?

I would prefer not every time I get in the car I have to change it from Driver 2 back to Drive 1.

Are you using the same fob each time? They are numbered.

The first time I used the #2 fob I thought my battery was dieing since all my presets were gone. Also it wouldn't beep when I locked the doors.

I just turned the personalization off. I don't really care about all that stuff, as long as everything works.
