Been to the dealers today with my creaking seat,it's got to go back next week to have the frame replaced at the back of the seat so they say.

Let's wait and see if that fixes the problem as it's already had the rail and memory position stop replaced.

I weigh 11 stone and am 6' 1.25" and I think there are those occasional times my seat might have squeaked. :evil:

Surely at your age, Asker, this will be 5' 8.5" in 2 months time  :laugh:

Im not sure of the build week etc as i dont know where to find that info.

But it was registered Dec 09

Ive had loads of problems with it, the latest one is a loud creaking noise coming from the rear brakes. My driveway's on a very very slight slope and if i dont pull the handbrake right up or if i dont press quite hard on the brakes it creakes and moves slightly forward

Thanks. I was just wondering if they were fixing squeeks and rattles after 1 year old as i think i will just tell them about my rattles and creaking door panels when it goes in for its service in March.

The brakes maybe as the brake pads take the heat from the discs/discs cool down. I have noticed mine does this too but not thought anything of it.

Yes, quite good at Lookers Teeside IMO, really friendly at the service desk and dont question much just do the work.
