This may be caused by the locking system of storage container in the front of the seat. To correct, apply lubricant to the striker. MB recommends lubricant oil 0009893660 shown here http://www.ecstuning.com/ES1609975/ - your call.

I'm also a "Victim" of the seat noise! I was told that is the lack of lubrication as stated already, I'm glad you guys posted this info before I went out and poured a 55-gallon drum of WD40 to stop that silly noise!

Anyone have a solution to this? I am having the same issue and it doesn't seem to be coming from the front storage area but more from the sides...
