Shaun1982 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Hi guys. Has anyone ever had either of their leather seats stop reclining & lifting the back? The seat moves as a whole but it won't move the rear back forwards, wondered if its a new seat job or a fairly simple fix? Thanks in advance Quote
spursmaddave Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Could be a motor, could be a connection Should be fixable either way I reckon Quote
Shaun1982 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Posted January 20, 2013 Thanks Dave. It's a car I've bid on that ends tonight, fingers crossed if I win it it won't be an expensive job Quote
spursmaddave Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Im sure Zedman will have spare parts if you need them Quote
4RE Leather Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 I, also would go with the motor not having power to it:) Quote
Shaun1982 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Posted January 20, 2013 Hmm I wonder how much the motor is then. Take it its two separate motors for the reclining & sliding? Quote

No idea mate drop Alex a PM, could be wiring, if it got snagged or something : shrug: Edited January 20, 2013 by spursmaddave Quote
spursmaddave Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Iv'e got 2 spare seats in my garage but it's a bit cold and dark and snowy to go look now Quote
Shaun1982 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Posted January 20, 2013 Yeah I don't blame, I'm sure I remember seeing a seat for £50 on here not long ago, noises of its condition mind. I'm sure if I win this car ill be posting, ill worry about the seat then lol Quote
Shaun1982 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Posted January 20, 2013 Nope, lost out by £100 to a bid with 6 seconds to go Quote
M13KYF Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Have you checked the connectors under the seat to see if they are loose. Happened to others before Quote
coldel Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Just for reference mine did the same, a little bird on here advised me to tap the switch with a small hammer and blow out any debris around the switch. Three minutes and zero cost later I had a working seat again. Quote
lmc Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Nope, lost out by £100 to a bid with 6 seconds to go Gutted for you Quote
Shaun1982 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Posted January 20, 2013 Ah well eh, I reckon he's had someone put a bid in to make sure it doesn't go too cheap, his email the other day said for close to £6500 he would end it. Wouldn't be surprised to see it relisted. I'll try share the eBay link Quote
Shaun1982 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Posted January 20, 2013 Here we go, should be able to still get the photos up. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/251211838428?redirect=mobile Quote
Shaun1982 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) So, not surprisingly the car is now back up for sale. Think I might of been right in thinking they got someone to bid to stop it going for less than they wanted. Annnnyyywho its now on here: http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/350z-pearl-white-9-months-mot-3-months-tax/1007983289 So I text as the ad says to & offered £5200 again which was my bid on eBay. Edit: just had a conversation via text with the guy about it. Could well be going to see it next saturday Edited January 27, 2013 by Shaun1982 Quote
davetstan Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 82000 miles seems a bit high to me for the price Shaun. Go for one at 65k instead. Much better :-) Quote
Shaun1982 Posted February 8, 2013 Author Posted February 8, 2013 Sounds & looks like a much better plan Dave Quote
