You've got fuel, now there's air and heat.

I'm pretty sure both manuals say that ride height cannot be adjusted by the SLS
control valve.

Diesel Volk,
Trying to remove front passenger seat. Three of four mounting bolts removed.
#4 turns / spins, but acts like the nut on the other side of the floor has come
loose.
Anyone have any ideas?

Trying the wedge now, no joy.
Heat is not an option, carpet would melt.
I hate rust.
Time to grind!

nuts at all four corners are in these bridges, so no access
from below the car unless you drill a hole.
Grinding it off really was the best solution, thanks Randy!

just inboard of the hole for the bolt. Now I need new hardware.
The carpet is out and hung to dry, water is getting into the car when it rains.
I've got to find and plug that leak before the carpet goes back in.

I'm getting list emails quoting emails that I have not received.
Nothing in my spam folder on my phone.
What's my next step?

Don't know, but wasn't that "fix" implemented several months ago because of
email rejections/spam?
Maybe we need to go back to that?
