Driver's Seat stuck forward - 06 MCS
 
The drivers seat has been sticking a bit in the last few weeks, I was just giving it a tug and it would go back but today it got stuck, stuck...
I was on a MINI run and some of the guys got it un-stuck but the back is off and it all needs to be put back together.
I want it to be checked out so it doesn't happen again.
I tried calling NWMini today but got no help and no call back which I am VERY disappointed about...

Anyone know anything about this problem?

Did you try using a bit of spray lube on the seat rails? I've never had an issue with my seat, though I haven't moved the driver's seat in a few years. Let me just say that the passenger seat functions properly.

Is it sticking after you move the seatback forward to get into the back or whenever you adjust the seat forward and backward?

It happened when I pulled the seat forward, it was the seat back that was stuck. It moved fine back and forth in the rails.

It was stuck due to a little tab in the mechanics of the seat. The guy who got it unstuck used a phillips screwdriver to push this little tab out and get it adjusted back to where I could drive it again, thank goodness.
I am taking it to the dealer later this week to have it looked at.
Thankfully it is still under warranty.

I also have a couple other issues I need them to look at...
