I recently purchased a flooded e550 coupe and am working on repairing it. We’re trying to take out the seats but the will not move forward so we can’t get to the back bolts to take out the seat. If there’s any way we can get to the back bolts please let us know! Also if you have any tips with repairing flooded cars/ Mercedes please reply with them. (The water line got to the bottom of the seats)

You can't figure out how to remove the seats but you expect to repair a flood damaged Mercedes? Here's a tip.....the flood waters are over your head.

I know how to get the seat out the problem is the seats are all the way back and won’t move because the water got to the computers under the seat so they’re stuck. We can’t get to the bolt in the back. The people helping me have flood damage repair experience this is my first time dealing with one. We’re just stumped at how to get that seat to move.

You must supply 12 volts to the motor. You may have to lift the lower seat cushion. Should be 2 torx screws holding that cushion in front. Look underneath.
