These little guys are basically cushions or supports, usually made of rubber or polyurethane. They sit between moving parts – in this case, the parts that allow your seat to adjust forward, backward, up, or recline. They absorb vibration and impact, and allow those adjustments to happen smoothly. Sometimes they’re part of the seat frame itself, sometimes they connect the seat’s mechanism to the vehicle body. Think of it like this: your seat isn’t directly bolted rigidly to the car. That would be incredibly uncomfortable. These bushings create a controlled amount of flex, so you don’t feel every little bump and rattle. They take up any play in the seat's movement, meaning the seat stays where you put it, and doesn’t wobble or feel loose. They act like a shield against wear and tear on the surrounding metal parts too. Honestly, you’ll notice if one of these goes bad. The seat will start to feel unstable. It might wobble when you move around, or it might not stay locked in the position you set it to. Sometimes it'll squeak or clunk when you adjust it, or even just while you're driving. It becomes really annoying, and it affects how comfortable and safe your driving experience is. Plus, letting it go can cause further damage to the seat mechanism itself. You can often find replacements pretty easily—Fixparts Online has a good selection, if you're looking for a place to start. It’s usually a fairly straightforward repair, and it'll make a big difference in how comfortable your seat is. Professional-grade support: Bushing (MPN 1J0886227) comes with a 12-month warranty!
