PaterAnt Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Anyone know why the owners manual for the mk4 says "Note: Do not attempt to fold the rear seat cushion forward." ? In my previous Focus' the seat base folded forward and the backs down to create a bigger and flat load area. The mk4 doesn't appear to do that.

Comares2001 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Just the way it's designed MK3 was the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Cheaper & quicker on the production line. Also safer as the seat base has no chance of moving in a collision - particularly with an ISOFix child seat. 6 minutes ago, Comares2001 said: Just the way it's designed MK3 was the same My Mk3 rears folded... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a Mk3 PFL, I obviously had to dry out the entire rear carpet before even driving the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that because there rusting in the showroom like back in the 70's I hope not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
