I’m trying to search for this clip online and I’ve tried using multiple descriptions. Is there a specific name for the clip? I can’t seem to find the exact one
The parts catalogue lists it as 'Holder for bowden cable'. I would try searching by part number instead, the part numbers are: 1K3881132B (left) and 1K3881132C (right).
My seat had this issue and I could fix it today easily thanks to this clear video ! Great job 👍 FIY I bought the 2 parts (left and right seats) from VW/Audi dealer last week and paid 2,33€ for both.
Very informative video so helpful to know this. Please may l ask if you have an opinion or personal experience with a 3 door front seat swap. I am wondering if it would be possible to swap AUDI A1 front seats into a VW Golf Mk6.As they appear to use the same floor pan so maybe the seat rails are the same. The Audi A1 seats are so much nicer and better quality than the Golf
Very good video thanks this didn't fix my issue sadly underneath the seat there is a handle that moves with the cable but mine is stuck so the chair only folds forward but doesn't slide any ideas ? Thanks mate
If you are able to access the bolts to remove the seat, I would take it out and inspect the rails and test off the vehicle. Sometimes a coin or something can jam the rail mechanism. Thanks
you can do this quite easily with the seats in Situ, no need to remove the whole seat, the bowden cable clip can be accessed through the rear flap quite easily, have done both sides on my Eos without having to take the seats out, its an unnecessary step.
hello very nice and organized clip, with all the steps explained one more question, should i disconect the battery since i need to unplug the airbag cable from the seat or i can leave it like that no problem
I have this problem that the triangle handle to recline the seat itself has fallen off. Can’t find the name of the handle to save my life and therefor can’t find a way to repair it. Any help is appreciated!
Hey, so i fitted the clips to my seat today. The drivers seat no longer goes back all lf the way and still doesn't slide when I tilt it. Any ideas why the seat hasn't gone in properly & why it still doenst slide and tilt? Thanks!! :)
It sounds like the clip isn't in position, or something hasn't been put back correctly. I would also check that the cable is connected to the upper release handle, you should feel tension almost immediately when operating the handle.
No sorry, we don't have a video for just the tilt function. I would start by looking at the handle at the top of the seat, and see if the cable behind it is still connected.
Hey man my car is same model and the back rest will recline back but won’t come up so the drivers seat is pretty much a bed coz it’s flat down how do I fix this
Tools used:
-M10 Spline: amzn.to/2ZJYxmC
-3/8" Ratchet: amzn.to/2ZIdYvQ
-Flat Screwdriver: amzn.to/3qRPuMn
Many thanks for this tip ! 👍
Not spline, triple square.
Brilliant video guys and providing the part number too. Wow, you’ve saved my day 👍🏻
Couldn't find a solution on FB groups, But glad I found this video. Hopefully I'll try this and it sorts my issue🤞🏻🤞🏻
This video is an amazing how to. My passenger seat doesn’t slide and now I’ll know what to do. Thank you.

I was able to replace it without removing out the seat
Excellent! Thanks
Just happened in my Mk5 golf GTi, on the passenger seat. Great video, will be useful!
Just need to find the part number now
Part number for the clip:
-1K3881132B (LEFT SEAT)
-1K3881132C (RIGHT SEAT)

Hey do you know if this part number works for audi A5 B8.5?
Hello did you figure this out also as I got the same issue
Please can I have some advice on seat not tilting? Would this still be that clip? I can fell tension when pull handle but just won’t tilt.

The A1 has a different floorpan to the Golf. We have never tried this swap ourselves, but would be very surprised if they fit.

Although very difficult to film.
If the seat wont slide forward you wont get access to the rear bolts can u help with that
It should still slide forward using the handle at the front of the seat on the underside.
Use the front lever to slide the seat forward
hello
very nice and organized clip, with all the steps explained
one more question, should i disconect the battery since i need to unplug the airbag cable from the seat or i can leave it like that no problem
We would recommend disconnecting the battery.
thank you so much guys cheers 👍👍👍
you are doing an amazing job
Life saver, cheers!
proper helpful, nice 1 mate
Hi do you have the part number from the LH seat clip
I have this problem that the triangle handle to recline the seat itself has fallen off. Can’t find the name of the handle to save my life and therefor can’t find a way to repair it. Any help is appreciated!
Thank you, wery helpful video

@@SelectVehicleSpares thanks :) I'll give it a try later on and let you know how it does.
I do this without removing seat and disconected cabel. It posible to conct cabel back without removing seat
Yes, it is possible to do without removing the seat. But it is very hard to film and show the clip without removing the seat.
Do these seats slide back ? I went to see an Audi s3 8p yesterday and it slid forward but wouldn’t slide back
Yes, they should slide back until the backrest part is folded back into position.
This video was great BUT The title says won't tilt. You didn't explain what to do if (like mine) it won't even tilt. Do you have a video please?
No sorry, we don't have a video for just the tilt function. I would start by looking at the handle at the top of the seat, and see if the cable behind it is still connected.
