June 18, 20179 yr Does anyone with an s7 have any problems with the floor on the drivers side? Mine seems to bend when I'm in it them when I get back out it springs back? Passenger side doesn't do it. Just wondering if others have experienced this if so what have u done to rectify it?
June 19, 20179 yr You'll want/need to have some kind of bracing/load spreading on the underside for the seats anyway, so a length of suitable angle used for that will also remove some of the flex form the floor.
June 21, 20179 yr My S3a has the same floor, I ran 2 lengths of angle front to rear for both the passenger and drivers side picking up on the L to R forward crossmember and the rear tub lip behind the seats. The seat runners were bolted through the angle iron, this stiffens up the whole tub. I also found that the rear floor stiffeners under the boot around the diff started to crack so I made a box section that bolted below and above the boot floor which stops the flexing.
June 21, 20179 yr Mine was like snappers but my wife still didn't like it so I fitted treated 12mm exterior ply inside to give a more solid feel. Happy with that unless it gets wet inside then lift them out and dry them off.
June 21, 20179 yr Cheers both don't suppose you have pics of where yours is attached do you snapperpaul
June 21, 20179 yr No but it's pretty obvious when you look under the car. If you don't have the stainless angle gearbox support fitted simply run angle side to side at the front and back of the underfloor to join up the 4 front to rear supports
