squeak from the drivers seat

Anyone experienced an irritating noise from the drivers seat, noticed 100% when the vehicle is turning and randomly when accelarating


GS with leather seats

It happened with mine as well some time ago, but stopped as suddently as it appeared. This car just cures herself! Bow down Very Happy

The seat noise i get is with the seat belt 'holder / lock'? rubbing against the side of the seat. Out with the old (2007 SE)
In with the new (2012 Dynamic with everything). Now also gone.

It is not coming from the seat belt for sure, It sound like some part is rusted and needs a WD40 !
Hopefully it will behave like defkalions car and self cure

Yup !!

Really irritating sqeak from drivers seat. As soon as I start looking for where it's
coming from it disappears Evil or Very Mad
I think I'll just spray everything I can find on the seat with WD40 Laughing -----------------------------------------

To get rid of the squeak DO NOT use WD 40 if anywhere near it may come into contact with foam or rubber or similar.
Please do use SILICONE spray, which greases as good as WD40, but leaves no spots or marks, and is compatible with foam and rubber.

Hey vafree2, just thought of a remedy: get your girlfriend and share the same seat for a while. Whistle Whistle Continous motion may cure it! Embarassed Thumbs Up Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter

So defkalion "It happened with mine as well some time ago, but stopped as suddently as it appeared. This car just cures herself", it was not a sudden cure after all. Looks like you used the "sharing seat" remedy
