i think my seat will squeak if its below freezing when I get in the car.
anyone else?

i thought my seat was squeaking, but then i realized that it wasn't my seat, it was actually the seatbelt mount thingy down there, so i just greased up the bolt and the squeaking stopped. If that doesn't help ya, then i don't kno... good luck tho!

nah ,,,, its a sound beneath the seat on winter days,.
a measly squeak but I like nothing but quiet on the seat.

that's funny, my friend's 350Z driver seat had to be factory serviced because of squeaks.

I have it, but Its coming from around the E-brake I think, I hear it when I drive around too :?

yeah i have 4000 miles on my tC and seats are fine.. (i weigh 250, and am tall) i do have to wiggle the seat to make it click into place.. but the manual talks about that.. if you've got a lot of noise, definitely get the dealership to replace the seat!! call scion!

ScionBandit

i think i need to fatten up...seein as how the smaller guys are having hte problems!!!

Could you tell me exactly what mounts you're talking about?

aznJ

same place as mahalzkita28... i think. The metal/plastic peice that holds up the contraption that is the female end of the seatbelt buckle. In between the seat and the center console by the ebrake.

sciontc_mich

so i'm curious.. why not take it to the dealer? or call scion and complain to get it fixed? just wondering why no one has?

Sin

#1 Rule of thumb for me...I dont trust dealers with my Automobiles. Most of them are smucks imo and when my car is back in service w/o me with her...nothing good hascome out of it. I called Scion and reported my VIN to them, so far not many have called so CALL AWAY! If Scion can get a sevice bulletin out I can do it myself...I've done the above posts except get a new seat...this is my 2cntz though, I'll wait a little I suppose.

with everyone telling everyone else to take their cars to the dealer right away when something comes up, i thought i was the only one....
