My new-to-me 2013 LS has a squeaking driver's seat... it's especially evident if the car's been parked for a week.

When I purchased the car it had this problem, the dealership "took care of it", but it came back a month later... when I lean back in the seat it squeaks annoyingly...

Has anyone had this issue?

Unfortunately, this forum isn't a white glove concierge service at your local Lexus dealer... we don't charge $180/hour diagnostics.

For what it's worth, at least I have more than 9 posts under my belt on the forum

Have you localized it within the front seat? Have you tried experimenting a bit? For example, have you changed the recline angles to see if it squeaks at all angles? Do you hear it only the first time you lean back after not using for a week or keeps squeaking for a while? You could ask the dealer how they "fixed" it because maybe it can be replaced under warranty.

I echo comotiger's comments.

Additionally, I'm in a bit of a rush right now and can't look for the link, so I would suggest you go on the 4th-gen GS forum and search for this. There is a member who had an issue on his GS350 that, if memory serves me right, sounded very, very similar. It took a few tries by his dealership to fix (and they damaged some things along the way - though that's neither here, nor there), but they ultimately found the culprit.

The posts are from a CL member in TX.


EDIT:

I found it quickly, so here you go... No extra charge.
