Seat backs loose

Recommended Posts

Can anyone put me outta my misery. I've slowly been going through all the rattles in my C and I've found the most annoying rattles come from front seats. Especially the seat backs where they hinge. They seem to be quite loose, side to side as well as forward to back movement. Is it just simply taking the seats out and tightening the hinges or something else?

The plastic sliders on the rear of the seat that support it and move in the side runners wear and cause this. I think they are still available through Volkswagen.

Yes I know these. Not figured out a solution yet though, but I think it will need some foam padding rather than just felt.

My MOT man has commented on this problem the last two years, and he's right. There is a lot of movement in the hinged part causing the back to move a lot when not occupied.

 

Will be interested also to hear if anyone has a solution to this...
