drivers seat slight drop

Post by chinkostu »

Anyone elses drivers seat drop slightly when sat in? The current activa set does, as did the old SX set. The bolts holding the adjuster are tight on both (well they were when i last saw the SX seat ;) ) so am i missing something? Seems odd for both sets to do it!

My Xantia does this as well, 306 does as well for that matter.

I've always just assumed it was "one of those things" and never given it much thought.

I removed the plastic side trim on mine and found a construction set, thankfully my infrequent vacuming meant all of the bits were there :)
