2008 V36 Sedan - Creaking Chair

[froggy88]

Hi All,

So recently I have noticed that my driver's side chair has started to creak when I shift my weight on it or go over bumps etc.The noise seems to be coming from the rear of the chair.

Has anyone else experienced this and knows what the cause and fix is? Its been like this for about three weeks and is driving me insane!

Cheers.

Nah, my fast metabolism negates any issues that would otherwise require me to put down the fork.

Hi Froggy,

Did you manage to get a solution with this?

I only just found your post and thought your problem sounded familiar. However slightly different that the creaking sound was actually coming from the rear end. I know you prob think im barking up the wrong tree here but maybe you can work out if it is in fact your chair thats making the noise by fiddling with it from the rear seat?

If it is in fact from the rear end (axle or suspension area) then let me know, cos I just had mine fixed!

Good luck!

Hey mate,

I have not had a chance to look any further into it yet. Ill take a look on the weekend but i'm pretty sure its the chair.

Update - So it definitely the chair. Sitting in the back and moving the front chair I dont get any creaking. When im sitting in the chair, the further I put the seat back the less the chair creaks to a point where it does not happen at all (the seat is almost all the way back).

Any ideas?
