Hi all
This is my first post to the forum but I’m a regular user of the site. I have a B8.5 (2013 A4 Avant).
The rear driver’s seat belt buckle doesn’t retain the tongue properly. If you give the belt a light tug it comes out of the buckle…so not much use in the event of an accident and bound to be an MOT failure. This is the 2nd basic part to go in my car, after the LED lights in the instrument cluster started to flicker.
Anyway, I’ve had a look inside the seat belt buckle and can’t see any obvious foreign objects…so have come to the conclusion that the buckle needs to be replaced.
I think the part number is 8K0857740AC01C.
My question is…how do I get access to the seat belt buckle fixings in order to remove and replace the faulty part? I’ve got a suspicion that that rear seat needs to be removed…although I hope I’m wrong!!
Thanks.
