Squeaky Sport Seat

[Huz-z]

I’ve got a 2006 3.0si with M sport seats and the driver seat is squeaking whenever I drive over a road that is not mirror smooth. Any thoughts on how to fix? Not the worst problem to have but it’s bloody annoying.

Turn the radio up. Or get a loud exhaust

Is the backrest leaning against the rear of the car?

I’ve cured at least three types of squeaks on my electric m-sport seats:
Seat lowered all the eay down can cause squaks (lift up just a tiny amount),
seat base joints can squeak (seat out and lube with lithium grease), and
bolster leather came loose (just tuck it back).

Thanks but I don’t think that’s the issue - I always make sure to not have the seat against the back of the cabin.

Thanks, I’ll try that! Give me until April or May to report back though. The car is tucked away in my garage, owing to the mild eastern Canada winter here and the three feet of snow on the ground. And I think I’ll need that long for my back to recover from shovelling all that!
