Door squeaks bad when turning

Does anyone else experience a really obnoxious door squeak when turning...im not sure if its coming from the pillar or if its coming from the door padding itself? It usually happens the worst when Im making right hand turns. I have a 06 5AT with only 900 miles on it. I think Im gonna have the dealer check that out and also Im experiencing the distortion coming from the driver front speaker when using the HFL.

I dont think its the seat cause Im able to duplicate the sound sometimes when I push on the door pad area closest to the B pillar. I also noticed while I was driving before that it squeaks a lot on left turns as well. Its driving me nuts

I've had my TSX for a month and have the squeaking too but it sounds more like a creaking or popping. It is on the driver's side and come to think of it, I believe it does happen when I am turning. Mine sounds like the door but maybe it is the seat. Thought when I took it in for the first time servicing I would ask them to check it out. Share with us what you find out please.

yea, mine could be more generalized as a creaking than a loud squeaking...I am gonna have them check it out when I get my first oil change done as well, unless it drives me nuts to the point where I just bring it in.

it really could be the seat...

can you replicate that noise when you are not sitting in the seat pressing on the door?? because if you're sitting in the seat pressing on the door your seat will also be shifting...

i got the seat squeak about a month after i picked up my '06... did this fix myself @ home and saved myself a trip to the stealership...

I know its a late post, but my 2007 AT is doing the exact same thing... only 450miles on it.

just take it back to the dealer, for the TSB, or do it yourself following the TSB directions... its a quick fix, and it works
