Default Driver seat squeak...
Does anyone else have the deep squeak from their driver seat leather rubbing against the plastic housing where the power seat controls are? It seems as though it just needs a little lubricant but I am extremely careful with what touches my care. Sorry about the confusing long run on sentence.

btw... I love my LS!!!

Thats exactly what it is. Lubrication issue. Had it happen to mine also. I just clean the seats real good and applied some leather conditioner and it went away. Make sure you get all areas that leather touches any plastics.

No problem. Just noticed we have the same color combo. Good choice!
