Creaking seats
Hi,
I have recently purchased a 6 month old S90 D5 R-Design pro after running a 14 plate V60 D5 R-design lux for a couple of years. Love the new car and the jump in technology is astounding. I have had the car a couple of days and there is an annoying creaking/popping noise coming from the driver seat when I either brake or accelerate. The car has the standard Leather/Nubuck R-design seats. I will be taking the car back to have it done under warranty but I was just wondering if anybody else has had a similar issue? Thank you! |

I can make it happen by sitting in the seat and rocking from one side to another. It needs a bit of weight, and doesn't happen when my children (5 stone ish) are sat in it. :wq

Mine doesn’t creak (yet) but does click every time I pull away from a dead stop.

My drivers seat has started creaking, but I find it quite endearing, like a favourite old chesterfield.
I must be getting old...

May be the seat base? Many moons ago I had a VW which used to have an issue with seat bases cracking

I have this too, not so much a creak but definitely a noise from the seat. I remember having the exact same thing on my old style V60 when it was new and some ‘special grease’ on the seat runners under warranty fixed it for good.
