I think fitted to the Opel-sourced Astra coupes and convertibles, Minis, Alfa Romeos of the era - any other European sources? They have fragile gears inside, and often their failure causes the adjustment mechanism to lock up solid.
Best practice to avoid damage, is to adjust the seat when you’re not sitting on it. That said, I have a broken one (adjuster) and am wondering what donors to search out. Pictures lifted from https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...mechanism.html |
