My seat stiching was coming undone when I bought the car so I took it in to have it changed, the whole back/upper portion. After the change my seat started to squeak a bit but it doesnt sound like a total metal squeak. I sounds like air squealing out of somewhere trapped if the road get bouncy or when I sit or try to duplicate by bouncing in my seat. Its not that bad but I would prefer it not be there.

Mine was squeaking a little and i also could not duplicate by moving around in the seat, only while driving. It was driving me nuts, so I tried applying wd40 to all of the joints. Well, it made it 10 times worse for some reason, which isnt really a bad thing because it will make it easier for the dealer to hear. Anyway, it is at the dealer now. I hope they just replace the seat because I think the issue is inside the seat in the cushion coils, maybe. I will keep you posted.

I will try all suggestions and keep everyone posted. Thanks for the advice.

Only squeeks about 30 minutes after Taco Bell! [&:]
I laugh everytime I think about this. My older 2 kids think it is hilarious. We don't go to Taco Bell, because I don't think I would be able to order I would be laughing to much!

Crazy and True mine also has the damn squeaky seat.
This damn car, first water leak (thank god they fixed),

Been to two dealers and all they give me excuses. Now the Damn squeaky drivers chair.
Whats next?
Stay tune!

Eat less beans or loose some weight.

Heavy grease for those poly suspension bushings works.
They have it at the Zone under EnergySuspension brand,
I believe. I used some from my Prothane Poly Bushing
kit.

My driver's seat sqeaks. The side seat bolster rubs on the console when I rock towards that side. It only does it when I move around. It doesn't really bother me that much so I haven't tried to fix it. I think some armorall would do the trick though.

Passenger seat squeaks when empty. When cruzing I like to keep the tunes low and hear the car but this is driving me nuts.
