    drivers seat manual height adjustment

    i have the lever type seat height adjustment on my drivers seat....

    it leaks down over time, sadly

    is there a way to fix this other than another seat?

    TIA

    drivers seat manual height adjustment

    This was the fix posted on the Disco3 forum:



    They say it is due to the seat cushion pushing down on the lever when you get in and out of the car, but there was a warranty fix for it when they first came out.

    I haven’t tried it myself - you just get in the habit of adjusting the seat up every time you get in.

    By memory I think mine makes its way down as I’m driving. If I set it to say 5 or so upwards levers, by the end of the drive it’s all the way down.

    Fortunately it's not a talking seat or it would be saying one at a time please.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    drivers seat manual height adjustment

    I gave the solution above a go and surprisingly it works. Haven’t needed to readjust the seat height since fitting. Just held in place by the pressure of the lever arm resting on top.

    You need a nicer piece of wood trim
