    I found the culprit, It's the two vertical bars the mount on the front side of the seat frame up by your shoulder blades!
    My noise came back so I had to really look for this one and it's the plastic mounts up top. You cannot see them unless you pull the whole seat cover off and I don't know how to do that. What I did was squeeze my hand up top on the front side and you can feel where those two bars come up and only have a plastic brace on each side, I sprayed some lube on my fingers and force my hand up there and was able to rub some on. Seems to be the fix!20230426_142846.jpg 20230426_142904.jpg 20230426_143015.jpg

    well!.....all 3 pics looked like still-shots from....ehrm....videos.
    then you finish it off with that comment.
    felt like you were just setting it up.

    back to the "original" subject.....glad you found the culprit. i can't stand squeaks and sounds....especially when i can't find them!

    It's was then it came back and now it's very limited. There is another post here on what a toyota rep did by using felt and extra foam, it might have been on a pro or 1794. Try searching and maybe you can find it.
