squeaky seats
Does anyone have a problem with their seats squeaking? I'm thinking there's something wrong with the lumbar causing my driver's seat to make an annoying high-pitched squeak whenever I lean (or bounce) forward - not every time, but most. For you "cloth lovers" out there, it isn't the usual creaking sound of the leather, it's more like two pieces of steel rubbing together or maybe even a whistle (like a dog's squeak-toy). I'm gonna take it to the dealer next week or so, but I thought I'd check here to see if anyone's had to have this fixed - it helps to lead them directly to the cause in case you can't recreate it in front of the service tech.
Thanx,
Doug

I had the same problem on my 99 cloth seats. And like you said that squeak just bothered me. So I checked it out and it seems that it came from the metal wires that support the underneath of the seat. There are some type of plastic that touches the wires near the very back part of the underneath, thats where I heard the most squeaks, so I shot it with wd-40 and that ended all the squeaks, took a while,but did the trick
