[s-cars] Seats No Move

[Lee Levitt]

You know, the considerate PO would leave a note. I hate cars with 
stories.

Speaking of stories, when my mechanic pulled the cloth sport seats 
out of my B5 A4, he found that the side airbags had been 
disconnected and a resistor had been installed to satisfy the 
autocheck. Wish I knew why. He installed the seats in his car, 
without the resistor, and nothing blew, nothing set an error 
code.

And my new (to me) S4 seats installed fine. Again, no 
pyrotechnics, no error codes.
