I've noticed my drivers seat has some play in it. I notice it during cornering sometimes, and it feels like the movement comes from the base or lower backrest (where it joins the base).
When I'm out of the seat, the base feels secure so I'm not convinced this is the issue. One area that feels pretty wooly is the dial for adjusting the recline which has a good 5 degrees of play in it before moving the backrest, the passenger seat has only about 1 degree of play.
I've searched quite a bit but the only issues people mention are the inflation and connectors. The wear and tear causing this must be happening to many cars by now (mine has done 80k miles and the seat looks in reasonable condition), can anyone help or comment whether they have quite a lot of play in the reclining mechanism? Perhaps some photos of how to take the seat apart to check it?
TIA

Re: Loose Recaro Wingback (when cornering)
i sympathise. I've got a different issue with my rs4 bucket seats which doesn't seem to have been discussed much on the forum!
sorry to not be any help but I feel for you!

My back rest adjuster also has plenty of play in it and I am sure it reclines on it's own over time!
No idea how to fix it but I suspect something is worn somewhere.
