Driver's seat squeak

[arock712]

I have a 2003 6i with about 65k miles that has developed a squeak with the driver's seat. The noise seems to emanate mostly from the back right side somewhere, especially when I'm making a turn. Anyone else have this annoying issue and were you able to fix it somehow?

I've got the same problem on my 2007 MS6. Of course when I took it to the dealer, the squeak took a day long vacation. The squeak happens every time I accelerate. It is getting worse, so I am taking it in to the dealer soon. I will report back what they find.

Thanks, kenospeed6. I've tried something that seems to have quieted it down pretty good: I raised the seat height a little bit. Apparently I had the seat height all the way down and maybe that was rubbing on something causing the squeak. We'll see how long it lasts...

Yeah, I changed the seat position too, and that's why I couldn't get the squeak at the dealership. No less than 20 minutes after I left the dealership, I adjusted my seat and the sound returned louder than ever! I am going to keep the seat in position till my next dealer visit. I will report back with the verdict.

Mine squeeks. Started around 34k miles. Gives me reason to change out to the speed3 seats
