Squeaky seat

Featured Replies

Hi all

Had my fabia vrs for 2 weeks now

Noticed that the drivers seat seems to squeak sometimes when you move in it

It's a little bit worse now with coilovers fitted as its moving more...

Anyone else had this?

Maybe wd40 will sort it?

Thanks

The one in my car does too (same seat base I believe).

Give it a wiggle. If you can see the rails moving then the bolts need tightening.

If the rails don't move but the seat base does then it is likely to be a joint under the seat. I had a look and it's a riveted joint so can't be tightened so just going to grease it and hope the noise goes away.

Thanks for the help mate

Will take a look tonight :) hope it's just a bolt

From what I understand it's the springs from the height adjustment system. I was about to take the seat out to fully oil them and then it just stopped squeaking. Not really sure what triggered it to stop.
