EK3 hatch "swaying" passenger seat, how to fix it?
Hi Guys!
In my hatch the right front passenger seat is "swaying' on the seat rail, when anybody sitting in it. I tried to figuring out to what's the problem, but I can't see anything. Anybody had/have the same problem? Maybe the slide adjusters the problem?

On my passenger seat there is a small bare exposed cable that goes from the lever mechanism that adjusts the seat position to the opposite rail. Not the main cable that you can see in your video.
I didn't have that smaller cable properly attached, and it would cause my seat to 'jerk' on the rail opposite of the lever. That cable acts like a tensioner to keep the teeth locked into the position holes.

You speak about this two side lever? Those two have a cable?

those items you have highlighted are literally an end cap on the rail, and a cover over the bolt on the rear mount.
I try if no more chance.

Not the same person with a different account. It's a spam account. It's been a pattern for many years now. They take a snippet of another person's post, and then post two images afterwards. One is a smiley, the other is a 1x1 clear image that I believe tries to track users. If you want more information, PM me - I've been watching them for quite some time now.

And for the thread: Tomorrow I try to find this little cable and solve this problem.
Short answer, because it doesn't work that way. The mods have at least taken step 1 towards stopping whatever they're doing, though, which is a good sign, and they try to delete them as I (we, whoever) catch them.

Srsly though, I checked out what you mean, it's interesting that the last half of every post is the same thing.
