New owner of a C63 AMG

Hi all,
Just bought a c63 AMG coupe yesterday and i must say thats by far the greatest car i've ever driven. loving the exhaust. However i had one question for you guys. when i bought the vehicle the seller told me the passenger seat doesn't move front and back and rather twists within the rails. I am guessing its one of the motors that is bust. Anyone had a issue like this before?

Thanks guys

Welcome to the boards. Post up some pictures of your new AMG.

Any plans for mods?

Grats on your new coupe. It's a option/package to have motors for the passenger seat. You have to manually move it forward and backwards if you don't have the option.

I know its abit late but....

Did you manage to find the part you needed?
I had the same issue where a bottle got trapped underneath and damaged one on the rods for the motor.

Managed to do a temporary fix but trying to locate the part with great difficulty.

Stealers want £450 for the frame as they do not sell the individual rods for the motor.

Congrats on the new purchase, and good to have another UK car here, not many UK posters.

Where did you get it ? Have a great contact (MB Indy) between Liverpool and Warrington who could sort the seat out if that's not too far, just shout
