Seatbelt sticking

[AJI]

Anybody else had their S5 drivers seatbelt getting stuck and finally releasing sometimes after 10 minutes of pulling at various angles?
Great car but this simple safety issue is infuriating!

Are you parked on a reasonably flat surface when this occurs, or does it happen all the time regardless of where you're parked?

Yes parked on flat

I've not had that but try pulling the seat-belt out a bit slower

Not had this issue on my car

Same with me I've had no issues with seat belt

Not had a problem pulling the seat belt out to fit but it can be fiddly to then clip it into the socket which seems very buried at the side of the center arm rest/storage bin, especially if wearing bulky clothing like a coat.

I put an extender on my socket, makes it much easier to fit the belt clip. I actually had the same issue in my old Kia Soul and this adaptor came from that. It went through all its MOTs with it fitted too.

No problem with mine

Fitted an extender on my drivers belt clip on the seat 2 pack from Amazon found the one in the car a bit awkward to get the belt clip in as it seems to be very low in the side of the seat, works fine now the extender is just the right length and solved the problem.
