Hey! So I've noticed that the driver's (mee :3) seatbelt is retracting slowly after I unbuckle it.

I've removed the trim on my B pillar and did a retraction test inbetween the height adjuster and the belt guide attached to the body. The belt retracted quickly as it would normally, so I assume it's something to do with it rubbing avainst the height adjuster.

I've got a feeling this is a fuck-around-with-it-till-it-works-properly problem lol

Lol that's fair. I've checked the service manual and it doesn't really make much mention of causes and fixes other than "It may be rubbing against something lmao"
