Wasn't this a common problem on the G35's?

I'm wondering if this driver seat play is inherent to the design of the base seat brackets/sliders or just isolated to a few cases. |

I have a base, I havent noticed it. And now Im almost afraid to "look for it", in fear of finding the problem that I didnt have before--that is one of the negatives on being on a forum like this

Errr...now I am thinking of spending the extra cash for touring with nav (was going with base and by aftermarket nav) just so I do not have this issue....hmmm.

If you want to check, just grab the base seat cushion front and back with both hands and attempt to move it back and forth. If you hear or feel anything at all, there is a problem! If you do the same on the passenger side it doesn't budge and not a lick of knock noise (in my case anyway) that's a good comparison!! The seat should absolutely not move!! (bolted to subframe)
I'm sure it's just a shim or spacer in the track that's needed! |

Ok, I take it back. It does click a little bit to the side. I almost wouldnt even call it movement, and it's definitely not anything to worry yourself about, almost feels more like a one-time clicking sound.

They have had my car all day and they are saying that it's normal for the seat to move while driving my particular vehicle! I have never heard of such a thing!!! All vehicles require the seat to be anchored tight with zero movement for safety! I have a powerful agile sports car which really requires a tight seat!! I can't believe they aren't just trying to order a new seat frame first!! We would never do that where I work!! Talking to the sales manager tomorrow!

Just keep arguing until they finally give in, mate - because they will collapse eventually. You have moral support! edit - name & shame the dealer when you're ready - they really are taking the piss.
