Question About 6-Way Power Seat
My driver's seat is a 6-way power seat. It will move forward and backward and up & down but it won't tilt. Do I need to replace a motor or the seat track (stripped gears)?
How difficult is it to replace either one of these items? Can a person with only moderate mechanical skill do this? :confused:

On my '88 Vette getting the seats out is a piece of cake.
From there it should be rather simple to service the tilt motor or controls.

I don't think any of the later C4 seats came with power tilt. Both my '93 and '95 have a tab located on the edge that you pull to tilt.
I believe 1990 and earlier have power tilt, but 1991 and up they don't.

I think he is talking about the tilt function of the base, not the tilt of the seat back itself. If you hold the power switch a certain way it adjusts either the front up or down by itself or the rear up and down by itself.
