Hi,

My problem is very frustrating. When I drive the seat is creaking, like a leather wipes the other part of seat. But, when I remove it and than install it for 20 minutes was OK, withot any creak.

Maybe I can explain in which position this problem occur. When the upper part of leather is moving sides ( left <-> right ), and from below of seat. This noise is like metal was wipes on other metal or leather. This is very irritating noise, I can't drive with that.

I check fences and they have minimal shake, it can be the cause of problem? What next I should check? I have black lether seat, so in Poland I could have problem with finding other one...

This must be a way to fix, when I buy it and driver almost half of year nothing likes this was happened. I try to record it today, You can hear this noise and maybe this help to solve my problem.

Please, help! :pray:

Best regards from Poland,
Largo
 
I would start by crawling in the back seat to look under the driver seat to see if you can get a better idea what is making the noise. There is a bunch of things under the seat that could cause a metal on metal noise.
