Seat reclining problem

[GilesB]

My seat doesn't recline when Iwhen I pull the lever up.

Has this happened to anyone else? Any ideas how to fix it?

[GilesB]

Yes.

Yeah im having this problem aswell, on both seats :S

I think I pulled it too hard or something.

Must be a common fault as i swear it happned to my old one rightr before I wrote it off.

I need to fix it asap.

this happened to me a couple of times if u look under the seat there is a large metal pin that slides into the sliding mechanisim, this usually comes loose and falls out, if u see it out slightly this probably is the problem just simply give it a good wiggle and a push it will go back in

there is one pin either side of the seat

From the Front of the seat

From The back of the seat

what u may also find easier if u remove the plastic covers along side the seat u will see the machanism and how it works sorry no pics of this
