With the options packages being equal my 525 came with power lumbar supports in the sport seats and my 545 did not?why is that?

Go figure, that's crazy. They must have screwed up the pacakages for the 545. I thought that they included it on the 545s in most configurations in the US. Are they both 04s or different MYs?

That seems like a mistake. The 545i with sport should have the power lumbar support.
Talk to your dealer about it.

For 04, Lumbar supportwas an option that you had to pay extra for. Even with a 545i 6spd SP.
