2007 TL-S passenger seat noise

I get a squeeky or creeky sound/noise coming from the passenger seat whenever I have someone sitting on it. The noise usual shows up when I either brake or accelerate. It seems as though the seat is loose in it's tracks or something. I can reproduce the sound by pushing the seat either forward or backward (not using the power seat adjusters) with my hands. The sound does not show up when I drive alone. It is really annoying. Anyone else with this issue?

You haven't gotten a response, so I'll give you a wild-assed guess based on what I found in my Drivers side seat (also a TL-S).

When I lean forward in my seat, it squeaks. Thought it was coming from the head-rest or left side bolster. It was definetly near ear-hieght.

Turns out it was the seat belt squeaking as it was pulled through the seabelt guide. Haven't given much thought abut how to get rid of it yet.

So I was just playing around with the seats at first and I discovered that it is definitely part of the seat and not the seatbelt. I sat in the seat and used my back to slightly lean back and then foward and BAMMM squeak squeak!!! I did this several times and the sound was there. I guess I'll bring it in to the dealership.

It reads like a seat track problem.

Our Odyssey also developed a front passenger seat squeak early on when someone sat in the seat. The dealer removed the seat from the track, tightened everything, re-lubed the track and re-installed the seat-- completely resolved the only problem the Odyssey has had to date.

That's where I bought my TL, but I won't be taking it there since I'm in SF. Maybe I'll bring it to Serramonte Acura or Mike Harvey Acura.

Good luck getting it fixed. I need to bring my car back again for front window squeaks and juttering noises.
