Title: Mk4 Passenger seat shaking like mad . PLEASE HELP
Post by: godsANGER on 25 April 2010, 20:34

oks my passenger seat in my mk4 is shaking like mad when i am driving above 40mph and i do a lot of motorway miles so this is foooking annoying  :angry: me right bad.

Any ideas what the problem can be? the seat it self seams to be prity solid as it doesn't move much when i shake it. can the airbag go of if it gets worse?

Thanks in advance  :smiley:

Make sure the bolts at the front are nice and tight  :smiley:

Takes 5 minutes to remove the seat

cant feel any lose bolts etc.
Any other ideas? could my car just need a wheel alignment badly ? or wouldn't it shake that bad

i know on my mk3 theres a white clip on the runner to keep the seat fitted tightly but mine used to wobble. took the seat of and found a white clip just stuck next to the runner, fitted it and bobs your uncle

What bit of the seat feels loose? Try shaking it and go from there. But my bets are on what Rhyso said.
