Hey guys I got a used 2002 BMW 525i a few weeks ago, and I discovered that the seats are not working right.

On both of the seats the right side motors don't work, so when you move the back part of the seat forward or backward it gets all crooked and twisted because one side is not working on both seats.

Some times when you move it around you can hear the motor catch up, and it straightens up but it still does not work.

I charged my battery thinking that their is not enough power for the motors to work, but that did not help.

Any one here have any suggestions or information about this type of problem?

I Drive a 528i '97 and my seats have just begun to mess up within the past year. The left side when you are sitting in the car on both seats do not move. Sitting on long trips is extremely uncomfortable not to mention they look ridiculous:dunno:. I do hope it is a quick and cheap fix.

I have a 525i with the same problem. A BMW mechanic tells me it is a matter of cable adjustment. We did take it apart and the cable is intact. Tightening it up made the problem worse.

Anyone know HOW to adjust the cable?

Thanks,
