Really annoying! Not sure what to do next!

PS The Jazz they gave me was a solid as a rock, so what does that tell you. Honda should not build cars in the UK!
For the passenger seat base, it is probably the Seatbelt tensioning piston, located under the carpet, nex to the seat (you will have to remove door trim, to access the piston under the carpet) The piston it ratling against the car chassis.
