Default Does anybodies drivers seat squek/creak like a mofo?

As title says. When I'm driving it is fine, but when I get in and out the seat squeaks/creaks like a MOFO. Drives me nuts and am thinking about taking it to the dealer as much as I don't wanna do that.

Anybody have luck with greasing some parts? If so what?

Thanks.

EDIT: See post 9, I fixed it.

Genpoo seat wobble
So on my way to work today
Took my car in for warranty
Squeaky Seat Resolution

Seems to be a known issue on some speeds...

quoted from one of the linked threads...

"The service mgr printed out TSB #09-049/10 titled "2010 Mazda3 - Rattle Noise from Bottom of Driver Seat". Applicable VIN's on this TSB are 3's (I assume this includes 'speed 3's) with VIN's lower than JM1BL******382460 (produced before 9/1/10). This TSB deals with "some vehicles may exhibit rattle noise from driver seat slide adjuster which is located underneath the seat. This is caused by the welding of the slide adjuster being broken and/or the push nut is loose due to repeated usage. To improve the durability, the material of the slide adjuster has been changed.""

Thanks, saw some of those threads, most are gen 1 though. But mine isn't a rattle, seems to be the back of the seat, near the hinge that is making the noise. Not the wobble some have.

I might try to silicon the hinges and see if that helps, if not dealer I guess...

LOL, I was waiting for that! I'm not fat, but I'm a big dude. 6-2 about 225. But I have an 11+ year old Camaro with quiet seats.

Post resurrection!

Just a heads up....my seat had been creaking for quite some time.

Today, the seat broke!

Let me preface this with the fact that I am not a fat guy and I drive my MS3 (2010) like a baby.

I went to get out of the car today and heard a pop....then the seat was rocking back and forth.

When I got home, I looked under the seat and found that a piece of metal within the sliding bracket had literally snapped (length-wise too)! I have to take it in tomorrow to get replaced. I was hoping it was a just a screw that had come out.

I will try to get a picture of it in the next few days. If your seat is creaking, you may want to look down there (again...picture soon so you know where to look).

Mine will squeak when I go around a hard turn and it pushes me to the side bolster. I weight 170. It is definitely annoying at times.

Wen't to the dealer today about this.

Said they put leather conditioner on the parts where leather meets the brackets and tightened up the bolts.

As soon as I pulled out it was still doing it. Went back and they said I have to give it time to set it...BS in my opinion.

I don't know why they can't just fix stuff right the first time...

I saw another seat thread and came it to say "Lose weight fatty"

Then I realized that I've already said it in here.

My dealer tried too, they couldn't fix it. Just do it yourself. Tilt the seat forward and WD40 the crap out of the two hinge areas on both sides. I did this months ago and it is still quiet.

I'm a fatty, there that is out of the way.

I was on some twisties about a month ago and hear a pop from my seat. It feels like it sheared a bolt. Plan to take it to the dealer very soon. Glad I'm not the only one who experienced this.

Thanks,

G

Sitting at the dealer again. They claim that there have been two new TSB's in the last month that didn't exist when I was here the first time.

They said they both involve removing the rear fabric of the seat and putting
either foam somewhere or putting some
sort of cover over the parts that are causing the noise.

I should be able to post what TSB's they did and if they worked or not shortly...

Alright so this is the TSB they performed...

09-069/09 - MULTI-MODEL - SQUEAKING NOISE FROM SEAT BACK DUE TO FRAME AND SEAT BACK PAD CONTACT

They used parts:

GJ6E-88-049 - Silencer ( $5 )
0824-88-049 - Hog clip ( .50 cents )

It definitely helped, but I'm still getting the squeaking sometimes.

I'd say it's 90% right now...

hmmm... Mine used to squeak. Then it seemed to fix itself and didn't anymore.
Now since last week I can feel a very small rock/ tilt if you lean forward slightly.
Only noticeable if you actually try and get it to rock.
I am a big dude... 6'5" and 240lbs, ha so wouldn't surprise me if something is going on due to my Jolly-Green giant stature. I will have to check this out later...

As far as I know for me they didn't. No mention of anything on any of the paperwork...

I know this is a little older now, but after numerous trips to the dealer I am finally getting a new seat base installed today!

Hopefully my squeaks will be gone for good!

That must be one hell of a squeak to go through all of that. Not saying you are wrong, just that it must not be at all what I imagined when reading the thread.

Rattles, squeaks, creaks, etc. do suck, though.

Mine squeeked right away and also was very "loose" feeling. It kind of moved forward under hard braking/accel.

Dealer replaced entire seat base under warranty without any hassle. Been perfect ever since.

If you get RMM, be prepared for that to annoy the living shit out of you. The piece that surrounds the tach and speedo on mine rattles constantly.

I'm around 230, and whenever I make a slow, hard right turn, it feels/sounds like there's a water bottle under my seat...after doing some reading it seems as though the welds or mounts suck balls and break often...I'm lazy and haven't done anything about it yet. It's too cold...

It made me want to rip out my seat and drive without it...lol

Any time I would hit a decent bump or my weight would shift due to going around a corner it would squeak.

Dealer replaced entire seat base under warranty without any hassle. Been perfect ever since.
Sounds like we had the same issue. I hope mine is good from this point forward...

Worse comes to worse, Im sure you will have to take it in for service eventually anyway under warranty. Mine has been in 3-4 times for warranty work. Now my drivers side window rubber gasket is pulling out of the door a little, back in we go!

There's actually a TSB for the 2009 Mazda 3's and 2010+ Mazdaspeed3's regarding the squeaky driver seat.
