Default Lumbar support, how to fix?

So the other day, I was taking off... and apparantly it was too much force for the seat to handle lol I heard a POP and I sunk into the seat lol

Sooooo now much lumbar support doesn't work. I would like it to work because I have back issues and the lumbar support helps :-)

Anyone ever taken the seat apart and now how to fix this?

mine was broken when i got the car, dealer fixed it for free but i paid a price....my leather wasnt put back on right and the plastic trim round the seat had all the clips broken off it...im still trying to find a replacement

its probably the air bladder that went bad

2. Go on a diet
