    I mean I'm glad that you have shown us that we can take the seat face off but you didn't actually show us how to do that you're saying this boat somewhere over here like what does that tell me nothing I'm going to end up pulling balls off that don't need to come off and it's just not exactly a great video for teaching anybody something I'm sorry but I am grateful that you taught me that I can take the front of the face off so I can get under my seat because of how tight this shit is I just wish you would have included in this information I don't know you know the list of tools I need and all that crap

    I have the same problem. Not sure if my bracket is twisted. Did you have you take the bracket out to straighten it out? And when you said push the shaft back in, did you use the plier to get it in more? Thanks in advance.

      Straighten out the seat as much as possible make sure the bracket is straight and the drive shaft goes in a little hole then zip tie it down so the miter doesn’t rotate

    Thank you so much, this was extremely helpful as I have just had this problem and my driveshaft was bent back 90 degrees, I just cut the tie wrap and re seated the shaft in the hole, put on a new tie wrap and it’s all fixed. I can’t imagine how much Mercedes would charge for this….new motor and driveshaft plus fitting, I reckon upwards of £750

    I’ve got a 2017 350 glc amg with 37000 miles, let’s face it mercs have crap seats the ones in my car are made of vinyl and are delaminating from the threads on the cushion( drivers seat) and guess what the main stealers don’t want to know as it’s not a safety issue even though it seems to be a common issue🤔🤔🤔

      They are scared because they probably don't want to damage it more so will probably want you to buy a whole new seat which is the case for mine. Hope the vid will help your similar situation
