Title: tip n slide
Post by: guyrocks on January 05, 2016, 12:54:14 pm

Hi lads anyone had this problem or know what's the cause. The passenger seat in me 3 door golf tips forward but will not slide but the driver's doe's, it's never bothered me until now as I need to get me boy (Bane) in the back to get to the sitters and can't really put a 8 month behind my chair.

There is a plastic clip at the bottom which breaks so when you tilt the seat forward it does not do what its supposed to.

I also had the problem where the seat did not slide back to the same position you will need a new one of these. It sits in the runner and only moves when you use the lever at the front of the chair.
