I suspect you'll have to get the seat completely out to look at this properly.
I tried to look into it with the seat in the car and could see naff all.

the actual teeth on the screw height adjuster are plastic and have no doubt sheared, off to the scrappy for you the glx models upwards had leccy seats
very common problem, specially if your a fatty!!
