Squeaky driver's seat

[Sideways the Seven]

I don't know if the newer M's have this problem (I hope not!) but my driver's seat is squeaking and it's driving me nuts. I know it's a common problem among the Y34s but do the newer ones have this problem as well?

Mine don't squeak.

Well, I'm definitely glad the newer ones don't have this problem because it's REALLY annoying. I plan on tackling this over the next couple of days and posting the info on how to get rid of this.

It seems like the later ones don't have this problem as bad as the 1st gens.

I solved the problem by raising the seat all the way up and forward and spraying the tracks that seat moves along vertically with some graphite lubricant I picked of from Autozone. That was about 2 months ago and I haven't heard a squeak since.
