Creaking driver seat bolster
Common problem, most of us are suffering from this issue but also my driver seat backrest bolster are creaking annoyingly.
dealer has attempted 4 times now to check but with no result.
seems most likely to be rubbing of the leather on the plastic back cover or maybe its the airbag cover....
Has anyone found a (maybe DIY) solution for this??
Wouldn't mind having a look at it myself but i haven't got a clue what the proper way is to disassemble the plastic seat covers wihout breaking any clips and stuff... does anyone have any experience with this?

same here! my thoughts are the airbag covers creating the sounds. i tried spraying some wd-40 and some lubes in there but it didn't work. also tried wrapping a plastic cord between the airbag cover and the seat (to prevent the airbag cover from moving), work a bit for me...but the wire does occasionally come off unless u glue it on.
