Squeak Issues with Driver's Seat
Sounds like I'm sitting in a metal folding chair. Gets worse as the Michigan temperatures rise. I've narrowed it down to the seat-back and not the base. With the exception of tearing it apart and hosing it down with lithium grease, has anybody had this issue and what did you do to remedy it. Thanks for the ideas!

Loosen the covers at the base of the top and bottom cushions and check the hinge/recliner bolts for tightness. Also lube your seat tracks (adjusters) with lithium spray LIGHTLY.
There are no springs in the seats, they are foam cushioned. Any noise is from the seat shell assembly points or the tracks.

Mine also does this, but since I installed the tuffy glovebox(rattlebox), it doesn't really bother me anymore. To remedy ALL my rattles and squeaks I just turn up the woofer!
