Drivers arm rest loose

my drivers arm rest appears to move slightly more than the passenger one, which seems much tighter, it has slight movement side to side as well. I've been rooting around thing to work out what in the seat is creaking and think it's this. It's been into the stealers and they claimed they had fixed it....liars....I can easily reproduce the clicking by holding the bolster above the arm rest and moving it.

Has anyone else had this? Can you tighten the armrest up? I am guessing it's under the plastic cover at the base of the arm rest, I'll have a look tomorrow in the light.

I had this exact problem the dealer fixed it by replacing the whole arm assembly under warranty, as far as I am aware they didn't fix anything inside the seat.

Well popped the cover off at the hinge and tightened the screw that holds the arm rest on and it seems to have stopped.

Now need to go for prolonged test drive to see if it happens again

well prolonged test drive and it still creaks / makes a noise - Big Cry

It's got better since I tightened the arm rest, but its been in the stealers today for the windscreen to be replaced (under warranty - faulty heater element) and they had another look and have got approval from Land Rover to replace the seat runners to see if that cures it - next update 6th Feb after its been back in.

Well, front screen replaced and they had a mother look and decided to replace the seat runners. These have just been done and the drive home was much quieter!
