I have noticed this to varying degrees in 1st Gens, and I think its starting in my 96. This weekend, I noticed that if I push the seat back of my car, the chair will rock by about a half inch! this really makes your car seem old, does any one else have this prob, and how do you fix it?

 

No, me I don't have that prob........

so don't know how to fix neither
sorry

yezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

I thought you were in belgium or something?

 

are you sure your seat is bolted down properly? check that first......

 

it is fine, its just the seatback portion that has a little play in it

 

if the 4 bolts on the botton of the seat of bolt down tight probly your gears in the mechanical seat is worn out. are you a big fella?

 

blue, post some pics of your car man. i think your car is the only one i havent' seen.

 

6'4", 190-195lbs, hardly classifies as BIG, (well, not east to west!!) but I sit with my seats reclined kinda far (I like to sit kinda low) so that may put extra stress on the SEATBACK portion!

BTW the 1st GenGS has the MOST legroom of any Lexus I have sat in (both ES's, both GSs, 2nd Gen LS, and RX too!!)

 

dam your a big ****. lol j/k man. i'm almost 6 and my hair rubs the ceiling. probly due to you leaning back on your chair has worn down the gears. nothing you can do about it but replace it.

 

how much??

 

Arm and a leg

 

damn, guess i'll be a rockin!!!

 

more seriously though. i'm not sure of the price or the part that needs to be replace. maybe someone else can shine some light on here for you

 

That can be caused by rear seat passengers using the front seat to get up, By pulling on the front seat with their weight causing the seat to have play in it. Kids usually do this.

 

in my case, I think its due to the "gangsta lean"!!! I like to sit low in the car, so I push the seat back pretty far back!
