Seat Squeak

Hi guys,
Just wondering if anyone else has run into this problem:
2011 F150 Screw FX4 drivers seat squeaks. Its in the bottom. It happens when you go over bumps. It doesn't do it all the time, but you can sometimes make it stop by moving the seat forward or back.

Squeak

I chased a squeak in my 2010 Platinum for months! Finally one day I was complaining about the noise to my wife and she reached over and pulled the seat belt latch away from the seat and the noise went away! For a quick test I stuck a microfiber towel between the seat and the latch for a few days and sure enough the noise was gone. I finally used a lube on the attachment bolt/pivot and the noise has been gone for a year now.

Yep ! Me Too ! - Thought I'd never see a post on this.

Mind was on the passenger side. Just recently narrowed it down to the seat belt plug in.
I'll try the lube on the pivot bolt.

Thanks !
