[QUOTE="556129, post: 17167, member: 14979"] I've had my 520i 2.2 for 2 months now and hv to say that I am completely satisfied with the car despite some small issues, like the crappy headlights which point to the floor, the "senget sebelah" stance when parked, heavy steering feel, and groaning air conditioning sounds. These are all issues which I can live with.However, what drives me nuts is the rattle from the front passenger seats (non-electric), which sounds like the seat is loose against the seat rails, especially when u drive over sharp bumps or high frequency bump strips. However, when there's a passenger on the seat, the sound's gone. My mech said its common on the E39's and just got to live with it. He tried tightening the nuts that hold the rails to the floor but that' hasnt worked. Has anyone managed to resolve this problem with the seats? appreciate if you could kindly share some notes. Thanks [/QUOTE]
