    I have a 00 B5 S4 and i have the same problem, ECS has a front seat guide that will eliminate the rocking... Has anyone purchased this?

    its the seat rail ... there is a gap between the rail and the seat ... causing the rocking. if u wrap ur seat insert that goes into the rail in duct tape it will solve the problem

    Happens to a4's too. My 99 has zero seat issues. My roomates 98 has a sloppy passenger seat that slides front to back non stop and a drivers seat that's like a rocking chair haha. He is just too stupid to fix it.
