Hiya Gents.

I've noticed the seat in my P38 tends to rock back and forth when accelerating and braking.

Which is a tad irritating..

Also the issue only arises when the seat it fully back, if it is further forward on the rails it's fine, at 6'6 having the seat close to the dash really isn't practical, having my knees touching the dash really isn't comfy,

Would getting a pair of pliers on the rails and giving them a squeeze help?

Or is there a bolt that can be tightened?!

LOL

Anyone else have this issue?

There's a technical service bulletin on this. I did what it said , and it changed nothing. Lowering the seat base helped a bit

I think my fix might be a placebo but every now and then when the rocking gets worse I slacken off and re-nip up (one or both of) the two nuts at the rear on the threaded bars that run front to back just off the floor level. Seems to help for a day or so. The 4.0 without electric adjusters doesn't rock at all, so I'd assume it's higher up (as per the bulletin fix) in reality.
