loose seat
I noticed over the weekend that my passenger seat has some vertical play in it when I push down on the front corner closest to the gear shifter. It can be pressed down about 1/8 inch or so and then will return back up... Only that corner, but makes an audible bump/click when done. Is this similar to your drivers seat? Can you narrow down the spot with the play in it? Anyone out there know if there is an adjustment that can be made or where to start?

I had a similar experience where whenever I was making the turn, a click sound was coming from the seat cushion. I narrowed the area down to the right side by putting my hand, cautiously, under the seat to feel where it was coming from. The solution was tightening a Torx bolt. Been fine for years now.
