Noise from rear seat bench, what do you guys do

cossack · 16-09-2011, 06:17 AM

I noticed the plastic pieces rub together between the two fold down seats with my csl interior. Right now i put a rag in between, and problem went away. Anyone else have this problem. If so what did you guys do for a permanent solution. Right now i'm tempted to get some black velcro to place in between.

Permanent solution? I find Bin'ing the rears & striping the fooker does the trick!

That will sort it.

I just stuck a black piece of thin cloth in the gap, and then after a while saw sense and stripped the fooker as per previous suggestions.

I put tinge spacers in between the seat and metal and between he two seats. Then. Lightly oiled the seats and made sure they were as far apart as I could..

Then i binned them and store them in the garage

If you're wanting to keep your seats, what about some sticky backed felt, obviously black. A wee thin strip down in between it? Or even some little felt pads at the worst parts?

Felt Pads

Tell the kids to shut up, mostly.

Mine used to be silent...... Until they were stripped out to have the warranty floor replacement and now they squeak like a bugger.

I'll wedge some of the old woman's suzzies in there...That'll do the job.
