The seat "rocks" and moves a couple of mm each time this happens. Twice before, my dealership "solved" the problem, but the third time (another service advisor) said they didn't detect the problem and could be due to my weight (admittedly I'm a little heavy... but that's another story altogether).

I understand that the Z3 (as well as other BMWs) has had this problem and was due to bushing wearing out prematurely.

Will be putting the car in again on Friday and hopefully this will be resolved.
btw, my car has around 20,000km already, but this problem arose around the 5,000km mark.

Cheers
Not a hint of movement in mine.
