3rd seat belt broken!

Post by celica » Sun Oct 26, 2014 9:09 pm

I was sorting out third row seating for my wife as taking kids and friends out

Luckily I checked as I thought the seat belt was a bit loose and wouldn't snap when tugged hard like an emergency brake

So I sat in the back and tried pulling at the angle of when seated

Pull pull pull
Nothing
Then I kept pulling and yanked hard the inertia reel won't roll back

Will get it looked at , hopefully not an expensive fix! Who am I kidding its a BMW!?!?

But check yours!!

Think its upper belt rear right
Seat belt is what I need?

Black version
Part number
72117161654

But diagram doesn't show the inertia reel?

Should be able to DIY as it's not a difficult job once you've got behind the trim.  You'll need a torque wrench though.  The unit will come complete with the reel.

This Instruction should help....
