2025 IM6 front legrests are manually adjustable: check before requesting a motor

Australian MY25 IM6 lists Front Seats 2-way Manual Legrest. Keep this separate from powered seat functions when identifying a repair component.

A driver wants to adjust the legrest during a long journey, but a repair parts search starts with “IM6 legrest motor”. Checking the manufacturer description first is more useful for the Australian MY25 vehicle: powered seat functions do not mean the legrest should be procured as a powered component.

Two-way manual adjustment is the complete function description

Page 20 lists Front Seats 2-way Manual Legrest for Premium 75, Platinum 100 RWD and Performance 100 AWD.[Manufacturer specification][R06] This confirms manual front legrest adjustment in two directions. Other seat adjustment entries should not be applied to the legrest.

“Two-way” cannot directly establish the number of mechanisms. The procurement name should not immediately become two motors, a particular rail or a confirmed separately purchasable latch. [To be verified]

Distinguish movement concerns from surface concerns

Record the specific seat, its previous use state and currently observable changes. Photograph the legrest body, its junction with the seat cushion and damaged area. Describe surface damage, visibly loose trim and actual movement problems separately so they can be matched to inspection findings.

The inspection record should identify the legrest, moving area and damage, retaining original component markings. Continue to describe it as a two-way manual legrest. This keeps it distinct from other powered seat functions being repaired at the same time.

Scope and verification

This article covers only Australia, MY25 MG IM6: Premium 75, Platinum 100 RWD and Performance 100 AWD.[Model year scope][R06] The cited product specifications identify functions and parts; they are not fault or replacement criteria.

No public data was available in the reviewed material for legrest travel, locking structure, removal/installation method, parts supply level or replacement decision values; OE numbers, repair parameters, separate parts availability or compatibility/interchangeability. [To be verified] Check compatibility or interchangeability using the vehicle identification number (VIN) and the local Australian manufacturer parts catalogue.
