Squeeky seats

I have had squeeky seats since i bought my 03 kompressor sedan.....the squeek comes and goes... does anyone else have this problem? I brought it into the dealer ship and they could not duplicate the squeek.! Soo frustrating and embarassing when your on a date in your benz, and all u can hear is the squeek!

Squeaky seats are a common problem with mb's, what you need to do is when the seat is squeaking go directly to the dealer and ask to take a test drive with a shop foreman so you can show him that the seat squeaks. After the test drive, make sure he speaks to your service advisor and tells him that he did hear the squeak and what parts need to be ordered. Everything is under warranty and if need be let them order you a whole new seat. This is the process I went through and now I have no more squeak!

I have the same problem on my 04 C230 Sedan. Piece of crap. Never had anything like this on my BMW which I have owned for 5 years now.

Yep, mine have started squeaking, too. Not anything too annoying, so I am just going to wait until my Service A to get it fixed, too.
