seat anchorage point is loose - xsara 1 coupe

Post by eurotrotter »

alrite folks

hope yer all keeping well

just noticed that the anchorage point for the RAILS is loose.

its not the bolt, its actually the mounting point is loose

its on teh drivers side

wat could have caused this

btw the car is a 3 door, so i guess it would have been subject to more movement and abuse.

wat i also noticed is that the both front seats do not tilt fully back. i.e. i couldnt sleep in teh car when i went to nancy, france last week!

any help on this would be great,

thanks

I had this on my first Xantia Activa.

The front left bolt fixing of the driver's seat had broken.

As seen in this close up of the floor pan:-
