Drivers seatbelt slow to retract clk 270 2004

[smeg reddwarf]

Just bought a CLK270 (04) but the drivers seatbelt is very slow to wind back up you have to sit there feeding it back in. The question is does it need a strip down and clean, could I swap it for a rear passenger seatbelt or time to replace it and save a lot of hassle.

Any advice best way to actually get to it no obvious screws to remove the door card

I have other question but this is the thing that is most annoying me at the moment.

Thanks for any help

Silicone spray fixed my slow-to-return seat belt

Yeah that worked for me too

Pull the belt all the way out and spray both sides with silicone spray, then let it retract.

It should be vastly improved !!
