Squeaky Seat
Anyone have a problem with squeaky seats in there X5. I have an '02 and every time I get in and/or turn a courner the driver's seat squeaks.

My '05 driver's seat does the same thing. Sounds like squeaky springs. I don't trust the dealer to take it apart, so I just turn up the radio...

They'd most likely replace the seat..

You sure it's not the seat belt receptacle rubbing against the center console?

Mine is more like a series of "clicking" noise rather than squeaking and it only happens during cornering (it's not the seat belt receptacle rubbing against anything). My dealer claimed to be the seat rails and replaced them, but that didn't help. Have to bring it up again the next time I'm in for service. If anyone have any other suggestions of what it might be, it would be much appreciated.

It's not the seat belt on mine either. Yeah, it's more of a clicking noise. I think it is where the leather attaches somewhere on the bottom. I'm not sure....

Mine is squeaking from the bottom seat cushion, right side. I can push the cushion with my palm, and it squeaks...Kind of like a '73 Toyota.

I wonder if the dealer will replace the seat under warranty for you since it is squeaky?
