How to Remove the Seats of Volkswagen Lavida
2 Answers
Methods for removing Volkswagen Lavida seats: 1. For the front seats, slide them to the rearmost position to access the screws. Unscrew them and push the seats all the way back. 2. For the rear seats, there are two screws near the calf area. Unscrew them and lift the seats upward with force to release them. Adjustment methods for Volkswagen Lavida front seats are as follows: 1. Pull the lumbar support switch forward or backward to adjust the angle of lumbar support. 2. Lift the seat cushion upward to raise it, press downward to lower it, push forward to move the seat forward, and pull backward to move the seat backward. 3. Push the backrest forward to tilt it forward, and pull it backward to tilt it backward.
I've thought about removing the Lavida's seats several times. It's actually not difficult to do it yourself, but you need to have the right tools ready. First, get a Phillips screwdriver or a T50 hex wrench, and clear any items around the front and back of the seats. Adjusting the seat to the forwardmost position makes it easier to remove the rear screws, then move it to the rearmost position to access the front screws. There are four bolts at the bottom of the rails—take your time when loosening them to avoid stripping the threads. The key is to be cautious about possible airbag or heating connectors under the seat; disconnect the negative cable first before gently unplugging them. Lifting the seat requires two people to avoid straining your back. After removal, clean the dust from the rail grooves to prevent rattling when reinstalling. This method is also useful for routine carpet cleaning or seat cover replacement.
