Creaking drivers seat 2010 FX37 50k miles

[Hadders]

Ok we all have noises on the interior but usually pushing / holding / punching can cure or offer a tempory repair. I've an annoying creaking noise which I can't blame on my wife as it appears from the under / around drivers seat. I cannot get it to do it by moving around on the seat or any shaking as it only happens whilst driving so very difficult to reproduce. There is no movement either which I've noted on other topics about the seats. Any ideas? Thanks in advance Andy

I'm not sure if my problem is similar to yours but i do have an annoying noise on my drivers side seat. Sounds like the leather is rubbing against something. I can replicate the noise by leaning my back forward and then slowly moving it back on the seat and makes a real loud leather rub noise. The only way i can get rid of the noise is if i jam my arm in between the side of the seat and the pillar and the noise goes away for a bit but then comes back.

I will point it out to the dealer next time i go. Gets very annoying at times but i kind of just dealt with it.

Hi thanks for the response, mine is more a mechanical creak which I cannot reproduce - if I could I'd unbolt the seat and check all the bushes / fixings etc. Only happens when driving - not all the time though but can be in a straight line or cornering. Did read a few months ago a member getting a new seat due to a similar fault but mine out of warrantee.

Now I don't know if my issue is similar to yours but I do hear like a clicking/creaking noise from my driver seat. I narrowed it down to my seat belt. When I have my seat belt on, I can definitely hear clicking/creaking noise from the right. Now the noise doesn't happen all the time but when I drive without my seat belt I do not hear anything but once I put it back on, those clicks/creaks start to come back.
Need to find time to take in to the dealer.

I had issues with weird noises in the winter time but it went away when the weather warmed up. the steering wheel adjustment motor sounded funny when it was below 40 degrees as well so i turned off the option to raise steering wheel when getting out and entering for the winter as well

I bet that is what it is a defective track, just doesn't make any sense as I cannot reproduce the noise whilst pushing and pulling on the seat. Thanks

Yes mine was the same....only made the noise/feeling when actually sitting in the seat & driving...would happen mostly when accelerating. Bought the truck used with only 14k miles on it...that was one of my "fixes" they had to do fore me before I bought the truck. Luckily still under warranty at the time....
