Default you really need to be careful not to be applying such force...

remember that you're strapped in to your seat with a seatbelt during a collision. the force that would normally throw you out of the car, the seat rails will in turn be exposed to it. so if the seat rails are damaged, there's a possiblity that the seat might not be able to retain its strength during an accident.

Default Yes, :( yes it does...

Had the rails replaced at 40k, starting to rock again at 60k. Hoping that Audi Assured will cover another set of rails.

Default If dealer doesn't fix it, try duct tape (seriously).

I haven't tried rwalker's approach yet, but if my seat movement gets any worse I might.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/1145010.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/1145010.phtml</a</li></ul>
