rodmonk Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 The front passenger seat on my 2003 zetec with swivel seats is stuck all the way forward. Can anyone advise on how difficult it is to strip the seat to find out what the issue is? Quote
suzuki91 Posted December 7, 2010 Report Posted December 7, 2010 to get to any bolts that fix the track to the seat would need to move the seat forewards and back i think. can you see anything caught in the runners? may be a case of push hard to clear it? Quote

Yes you're right to un-bolt the whole seat does require the seat to be moved back. Can't see anything stuck but it's hard to see what's going on. Tried pushing hard but it's not having it. Quote
chrispb123456 Posted December 7, 2010 Report Posted December 7, 2010 Hi thereIirc it's easier to remove the slide and seat togerther then turn seat upside down to work on, remove slide from seat. Quote
rodmonk Posted December 8, 2010 Author Report Posted December 8, 2010 Because the seat is stuck forward I can't get to the front 2 bolts, so I think I'm looking at taking it to bits? Just looking for advise on how to go about this. Thanks Quote

springen Posted December 10, 2010 Report Posted December 10, 2010 (edited) The front passenger seat on my 2003 zetec with swivel seats is stuck all the way forward. Can anyone advise on how difficult it is to strip the seat to find out what the issue is? My front passenger seat is stuck too - won't budge forward or back when the front lever is lifted. It will swivel around though ??!! I've had a good look and cannot see anything stuck in the runners. Anybody else had this problem - and solved it ? Edited December 10, 2010 by springen Quote
seatkid Posted December 10, 2010 Report Posted December 10, 2010 :16: Wusses...mine sometimes gets stuck in full frontal position :16: but two feet firmly on the floor and good shove frees it If all else fails use a lump hammer.... :o Quote
