Thanks chaps much appreciated - will see if I can make the stealer see sense before I commit my £40 for a crappy piece of plastic

Anyone else have the seat tilt chrome lever come off in their hand - been quoted £495 to remove seat, strip and inspect cable gulp !

Should that be covered under warranty ?

Mine didn't work properly and was fixed under warranty.

I've had two replaced under warranty.
5 minute job.

Update from the stealer "The Technician is 100% sure it's not the lever it's the cable that needs adjusting and replacement and this not covered under warranty therefore labour £247 + vat plus parts"

Despite me showing them the broken lift handle this is the response I get and now understandably my urine is beginning to boil - suggestions please !

Would be no trouble to put a new handle in and seeing if it works. I'm guessing it will.

Are the seat lift handles interchangeable if I remove the drivers side do they just pull off ?

Absolutely, it's just the same handle for all four sides....but I imagine you will break one trying to get it out.
