Title: Jammed rears eat belt
Post by: rolty_gti on 30 July 2012, 10:07

Hi guys I took apart the rear seatbelt (behind drivers seat) and surrounding trim to replace the petrol cap solenoid popper and now I'm trying to replace everything the seatbelt is now stuck in position and won't allow any slack for me to refit it to the anchor points, have any of you had this problem and how did you un-jam the belt to allow for refitting?

Many thanks in advance

Thanks matey will give that a try now but it's annoying the hell outta me, I take it I just gotta hold it at the right angle for it to release? :undecided:

I presume so; never had trouble with mine so I can't advise you I'm afraid  :sad:

I shook my rear belt retainer with the belt under a bit of tension when mine jammed due to the same thing, it released eventually
