SQUEAKY FRONT SEATS
Hi all. I'm sorry if this post sounds silly, but the squeaking sound
in my front driver seat is driving me bananas! Somewhere in the seat if I move (especially when cornering and my body leans either left or right with the turn), the seat squeaks -- more like a creaking sound. You know the sound of a door opening slowly with rusty hinges? That would be my seat. Anyone have any suggestions on how to permanently get rid of this creaking noise? PLEASE HELP! It's driving me bananas. My ride is a 2006 Wrangler 6-speed tranny. THANKS |
Re: SQUEAKY FRONT SEATS
I had the exact same problem on the same vehicle from the first day I bought
it. It drove me nuts. I solved it by spraying some WD40 at the back mounts of the seat rail (seat to body mounts, bellow the plastic cover). Yours may be squeaking at a different location. Try to locate the exact spot that originates the squeak by having someone move on the seat to make it squeak while you are listening around the seat. Then spray some penetrating oil to it.
