Hey this is my first post.

Bit of background I think is required, I'm 22, passed back in November (first time) and proceeded to get a car.

Now this may be used against me however I have the following
Fiat "grande" Punto active.
In honesty, it does its job perfectly well.

I'm 6'1 and recently I've become to find either my left (always left) shoulder becomes v achey when driving, and also the bend of my right foot, the bit which attaches the foot to my leg? That hurts, i imagine from flexing between brake and accelerator.

I am hoping for someone to give some assistance with a correct seat position, if required I can get some photos of how I currently have it and go from there.

FYI steering wheel is height and reach adjustable, seat I can change back angle, height and sliding.

Hope you can assist me with this! Drives me mad, no pun intended

Cheers

I have wheel at lowest... may need to change that.

Regarding your legs, depress clutch then move seat until I have a tiny bend but not a leg lock?
