Only true solution is to replace both seats which won't happen!

Mine is going in on 22nd Jul to have both front seat frames replaced - contact dealer, supply photos and they refer to BMWUK who should respond with a dealer specific authorisation number.
The dealership is also replacing the timing chain, guides and tensioners so will have the car for a week while I buzz around in a 114i loaner.
