Squeeking front drivers seat
« on: 17 January 2018, 09:36 »
Anyone had a squeeking front drivers seat base before? Mine seems to squeek on the right hand side as you sit and only really does it on left hand bends. Anything that can be lubed or greased on the underside??

Grease/lube all of the moving parts (especially the rails) and move all of the seat adjustments to the full range in both directions.

Should fix it, might even fix it just by moving it full range and picking up some OEM lube from the moving parts - possibly dried out where you have it set if you don't move it often.

Mine squeaks occasionally. I'm trying to figure out how to reliably reproduce the noise. Then I was going to ask the dealer to look at it.
