Can someone help me out here? My seat and seat belt is squeaking like crazy. There is a FAQ about this but I really don't understand what the hell it is talking about...Can someone go over the procedure one more time?

You have to get membership and do a search. I know for a fact that this topic has been covered before, just don't have the thread link to it

Mine was squeking from the buckle - I just sprayed a bit of wd40 in the seat belt buckle and it went away.

You sprayed in the buckle area as in the BASE or the socket (hole) where the seatbelt snaps in? I spray a tons of WD40 at the BASE..no luck...I think the majority of my squeaks come from this area. The squeaking is driving me nuts.

The springs under the driver seat are the ones causing the majority of squeaks. Take your car back to the dealer, make them put felts in between the springs, and If you have a seatbelt squeaks... they can also put a piece of felt in there as well. This will stop all the squeaks.

Spraying WD-40 into seatbelt buckle may helps stop the squeaks temporarily, but not solving it for good.

I get a sqeaking from the top part of the seat belt that moves up and down to adjust the height of it. Any body have a quick fix for that?

The most annoying and difficult to fix squeak has been partially documented in FAQs here, but the problem on some cars is greater than described.

Essentially, where the foam bolsters and pads come in contact with the various metal rods and frame components, the squeaking can be severe and drive you nuts.

The FAQ solution - using adhesive backed felt used for furniture and lamp bases (available in most hardware stores) - is a good one, but for bad problems it may be necessary to get old rags (thin, not a washcloth) and slide them into position using the tips of your fingers and needle nose plyers.

It took me 5 times and the full use of my paratrooper vocabulary to finally get it right - and that was after 5 full days at the dealership trying to get it fixed.
