Not Normal for the seats to squeak...

Time to UPGRADE to Heated/Vented/Multicontour/Massage/Drive Dynamic seats!

I have an -03 with dynamic seats. There is Squeaks in it to. There is a guide to fix it somewhere on the forum, I think it was in W211 section. I tried to find it but didnt, I hope it is not removed.

It is an easy one to fix, just upholstery rubbing agains plastic. Put some fabric in btw. I had it in front and back of seat lower parts. I put some fabric in where the seat cover plastic was rubbing agains the leather.

I belive from my knowledge from forums that the first years of production have some Squeaks and rattles. Most common is Pano roof and seats I think. Probably there was quality problem in the early production.

I had also Squeaks from the rainsensor cover that was driving me crazy...

Hope this helps.

HAHA!!

U love them, so nice they are!

But now I come up with something I been thinking of, is it possible to set dynamic mode on passenger seat on as default? I never succeded with it, I always have to lean btw legs of passenger and push button for them, (but nice sometimes!)

if its anything like the E500, the soft side of velcro wrapped around the seat belt lock? has shifted around and its rubbing against the leather.

Agree had the same thing on mine .... used a small piece of cloth rapped around the belt lock where it touched the seat and walla no more squeak.
