squeeky seat!! what the hell!!
I saw a similar post not too long ago. My damn driver side passenger seat squeeks. It sounds really stupid.
Anyone have a similar coincidence??????
What can they possibly do if I send it in for warranty service? replace it?

try my brother buying a brand new 2001 3 series bmw back in '01, and 4 months later, the "SRS" light comes on, twice. once was a problem i believe they fixed, and the second time was a faulty sensor. i'd say that was a bit more serious.

I had a girlfriend who squeaked a lot, and she was good quality.
I traded her in though.

Blackbeard700,
My family's been driving MB for a long time even though this is my 1st one. We never had any problems with the ones that we pre-ordered from Europe(there aren't usually stock cars floating around in Hong Kong back then, and everyone has to sit and wait for a good 3 months). Well, as a measure to cut cost, MB moved their assembly plant to Brazil for some lower end C-models. I don't know if that could been a QC problem.
