bench seat drawer getting stuck

[jules brown]

Hi,
I am having trouble with the drawer under the bench seat getting stuck. It slides easily on the runners and the left side (fridge side) catch releases easily. The right side catch (sliding door side) won't release. I have managed to open it by lifting up the seat to allow access to the catch. Every time I shut it it gets stuck. It takes a hefty shove to close it. I have read that a loose nut on the fridge side of the rod can cause this but that isn't the case on mine. Any advice welcome!

Bench seat drawer won't close

We've been having a great time this last month in our new T6 Ocean. About to return home yesterday and found the bench seat drawer just will not close and stops about 100mm short. There's nothing blocking inside the drawer (which Ive emptied). Ive removed the rear toolbox and can't see anything...

I’ve had the nut on the other side come loose and also had to access from above. I finally tightened the nut with Allen key and a spot of superglue stopped it coming lose again.
