Default PAX Seat rattle

Anyone else have this problem with the PAX side seat? Mine rattles when there is no one sitting in it.

Mine seems to only rattle when road conditions are a little rough and it doesnt have to be too bad. On good smooth roads theres no rattle at all.

i would guess there are some springs hitting each other under the seat...have you tried stuffing a shirt under the seat and seeing if it stops?

this might be a long shot due to me having two car seas int eh back i dont have mine lose to rattel to offten.
But dose your year have the rear seats that fold down?
If so try getting back there where you can see those latches and see if they are the rattel your hearing. It might be they are out of adjusment or you might find that the seat cusion has losend up som and is n longer holding the right tention on them.

If so you might beabel to shim the latch or adjust it

If nothign els go get some weather stiping that has that sponge stuff on one side and line the read port a shelf and make them tighter.
Good luck

It's the passenger side front seat. If I place something with a little weight there it stops.

Patrick,

Good idea, I'll try that when I get home.

It's possible, this rattle is soooooo aggravating.
