Default 18-way seats auto-movement questions

I've noticed that my driver's seat barely moves back when I turn off the engine and the steering wheel tilts up only a little bit. Is there a way to make both move out of the way more? I could swear they moved more on a loaner I had some time ago.

Another issue I have is that when I tilt front seats forward for access to back seats, they do not automatically slide forward. Are they supposed to? If not, that's just silly because every 2-door I've seen does that. Is there a way to make them automatically slide forward when tilted forward for back access?

I didn't know the car had that feature. It is something I associate with Lexus. None of my German cars have had that feature.

Just tried on C63S with sports seats (pseudo-buckets) and it does both - driver's seat rolls back on shut off and both front seats roll forward when tilted forward for rear access. It's very helpful to make it easier for kids to get in the back.

My ML63 also does this although since I drive with the seat fully back all I notice is the steering wheel's movement up and away...and my Turbo S also does this

I also asked myself the same question the other day, I checked the manual and only found how to turn it off/on; no adjustments. It also depends on how tall you are/how far back your seat is. I'm short so I have plenty of track for the seat to move back​​​​​​. .
