Dropped into my dealer.
Manager agreed that seat base needed replacing. Stitching definitely faulty.
Warranty Manager back at work tomorrow.
Will see her Friday.
Should be no problem authorisng replacement as a Warranty Claim especially as the car has only done 4850 miles.

They have replaced a few I think!
Will need the car for a whole day. They will put a specially trained guy to do this.

No, he said it was the whole seat base. He'll show me the old one. I trust them and they like me very, very much!

But that's the UK for you. Heavily populated with them.
This proportion of the population will increase as the government aims to curb immigration.

Even a very svelte 11 stone has greater mass due to downward movement when sitting down!

 :laugh:
I was going to ignore that.
I think he needs to learn some Physics/Applied Mechanics and know the difference between force and mass.
Hope Newton can rest now.
