Default Front seat wont tilt forward

Hi,
I just bought a 2004 CLK500. LOVE IT! However, when I pull up on the release lever so that the driver's seat can be pushed forward, it does nothing. The passenger seat works fine.

Does anyone know how to fix?

Thx.

hello- I had a similar problem and found that the cable needed tightening up- I removed the back panel of the seat found two cables and they have sort of hand twist tightner thingys- like on a bike's gear/brake cable....I tightened them up and all worked after- good luck & this helps.

Thanks for the reply,
Is there a specific way to remove the panel? I will try your suggestion.
