Default So annoying...

I folded my backseat recently and now I have this annoying squeak coming from the back. Where exactly is it coming from and how on earth do I make it stop?

Check the headrest. I have a squeak there too. You can take the spring off that makes the headrest come back up and bungee it down.

Happened to me before.... I put the seat back down (fully flat) and then back to the upright position and that took care of it

Yeah, usually re-folding or securing the seat to the floor (2-door) fixes any weird sounds or issues.

Back seat, right? Not front seat-back?

Yeah. Back seat on a four door. I tried folding the seats down yesterday and snapping them back up. Still squeaking like crazy right now every time I hit a bump. Any thing else I can try?
