What's This?? is it causing my squeak?

Featured Replies

Right, I have had a good look for my potential squeak today, I couldn't find anything loose, but when I had both the back seats folded down the other day and I drove to work the squeak was gone so I know it must be related to the back seats.

Whilst looking I found the following loose on the boot floor stuck in the middle of the 2 seat back half's, I assume it goes on the bracket the hinges are on? Can someone do me a favour and take a look where it goes exactly as it could be the cause of my squeak?

Thanks.

Anyone? :(

I may hav also found a paint defect whilst washing it this afternoon, I shall take a picture tomorrow. Between the front passenger side headlight and foglight there is a small black thing. Not sure what it is, but it's like fibre and chewing gum in one when you try to take it off. It's embedded in the paintwork.

Anyone? :(

Right, been out in the cold and dark, and took this:

Thanks very much mate, that's where I put it but it was slightly curved so it threw me of a bit.

Hmm, don't think it will stop my squeak.

That's a pretty good photo too by the way. I took mine with my iPhone as me camera battery is flat.

Not a problem - any excuse to go and look at/play with my new car!

Ironically that photo was just a 'point and shoot' effort on my 5 year old compact digital, which just happended to be on the coffee table - wish I could take some credit for good photography, but that was all down to Sony! :lol:

hi, I had the same problem with the rear seats. Check out..

My topic called 'window rattle'

It moves onto the problem. Honest !

I had the same problem as you and I'm 99% sure that I know the answer:P

Pull down the back seat and oil the place (mount which goes into the back seat)... When you pull down the seat - the mount does not touch it so it doesn't squeak... Oil it and put a small amount of oil in the mount into the back seat...

hope you'll understand what I mean:P

Yeah, I had the squeak on the right hand side. I've just got a bit of paper wedged in between for the time being and the squeak has gone!

It's a shame it does this in the first place though.
