Need Advice On V35 Drivers Seat

[GRK35L]

Hi all,

I desperately need some help.

I have a problem with my drivers seat, the seat is quite loose and I believe the seat rails have either broken away from the car or the seat itself.

I am trying to track down a solution to this problem . I have located a replacement drivers seat however the seat is a cloth sided one while mine is leather sided. Soo...

If this is my only option could I swap the rails over from the new seat to my old one?

If the first doesn't work are the coupe / sedan seats and rails interchangeable ?

Any advice would be appreciated.

BTW I have a V35 350GT8 sedan premium edition

And live in NSW just north of Sydney .

Thanks

Find out whats 100% wring with it first before u do anything, might just be loose and needs some bolts done up, take the seat out or take it to someone that can look at it for you.

^^ I had contemplated this however my mechanic is pretty sure from looking at it in the car it is a problem with the rails , however advised me to source a new seat or rails first because he feels if we take it out of the car we could well and truly stuff the rails and I will not have a car to drive then.

Sounds like a good excuse for some Bride rails and seats.

On mine the rails were a little loose, sliding back and forth a couple of mm.

on my coupe the height adgustment rod snapped, i just got it welded. the seat comes out real easy, just 4 bolts, and a few clip plugs, you can get it out in 5 mins, take it out and have a look for a break.

This sounds like this may be the case as my seat rocks back and forth , all the electrics still work but whatever position you put the seat in it rocks

if your going to take the seat out make sure you disconnect the battery as i recall there being an issue with the airbag light coming on and staying on once the wires are unplugged.

should be some forum topics on G35 driver about it.

I found this thread today while looking for solutions to my "electric seat switches on passenger side do not work anymore", and when I did a google search I found a video that was uploaded literally 10 minutes ago and it's exactly what you were looking for, just 10 years late, hope it helps!
