Nibbles Posted September 3, 2003 Report Posted September 3, 2003 I have a 98tdi (ford) and the passenger front seat has got stuck in the forward position. I have had a grope round (with the seat not those who get on it) and have failed to get it to get it to move. Is there anyway it could have locked or do you know how I can get at any retaining type fixtures to try and move it. Quote
Guest chrisH Posted September 4, 2003 Report Posted September 4, 2003 I had a similiar problem but mine wouldn't slide back or forward without a bit of jiggery pokerery. What I ended up doing was swivelling the seat until I could see the adjustment lever, from the lever is a thin bar which leads to the centre of the seat structure, this bar sat in a metal unit which linked to the locks on either side of the seat slider, From what I can remember. What I did was take the thin bar out, bend it back into a shape I thought it was meant to look like and replaced it, viola, it now slides back and to. Because the bar is so thin it must just bend slightly with wear and tear. Hope this helps. Chris Quote
