Default Jaguar x350 xjr rear seat back won't release!

Hi Everyone. I'm new to this forum and certainly pleased to see the wealth of information and support here. I have a problem accessing the reverse parking speaker on my 2004 X350 XJR which has died. The vertical part of the rear seat just won't release despite numerous attempts to pull on the 2 black straps. It seems well and truly stuck. One side comes loose slightly but the other is fixed firm. Can I access the release mechanism from inside the boot? If so, then what is the process. Am hoping to have another attempt this weekend so would appreciate some advice. Looking forward to hearing from you. Gerry

Welcome.

I reckon a re-ask in the X350 Tech section, where the answers.suggestions will be.

Welcome to the forum Gerry,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

The Workshop Manual mentions "release the rear outer seat backrest retaining clip" as part of the seat back removal procedure. Members with this model will know more.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...-x350-x358-28/ to the X350 forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the UK & Eire Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/uk-eire-68/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
