Seat squeaking? (Video attached)

[droidlogik]

My seat started squeaking/creaking really loud yesterday. Anyone else’s seat do this? Should I even bother having Acura look at it?

Yikes. I’ve had a couple of creaks and groans occasionally, but nothing steady.

I would hold off as long as possible. Dealership is likely to make things worse.

Mine has been doing the same :-/. Gonna take it in for service in the next month to see what they can do.

Same sound started for me about two weeks ago near the top of the driver's seat. I dropped it off at the dealership last Thursday to get it checked out with some other issues (buzzing dash, creaky brake pedal, illuminated door sill problem.) I haven't heard anything from them yet but I'll keep you updated!

I brought mine in for it the other day and they fixed it. Something between the seat and the seat cushion was causing the problem. Haven’t heard it since.

I’ve had a few hands and the rails squeak after a while in some of the cars I’ve had. I believe adding grease or replacing the rails under warranty will solve it.

Mine does this when the temperature changes a lot. I think the foam holds onto some moisture or something due to condensation and makes the foam squeak against the seat internals. My squeak/creak always goes away on its own. It will come back at times with big temperature shifts.

I went as far as opening the leather backing/unzipping the seat cover and found it was just the foam rubbing against metal.

It drove me nuts when it first happened, but it really does go away on its own.

Mine squeaks on the driver's side thigh bolster but only when I lean or sit on it directly. It's not consistent or constant so it doesn't bother me enough to have them go in and deal with it.
