2012 Acura TL driver seat

Hey,

Lately my driver seat would make squeaky noises while your driving. Not sure if anyone else ran into this problem.

Can you duplicate the noise when the car is stationary and just you move around in the seat ?

Can you locate where the noise comes from ?

Sometimes a noise that seems to come from the seat, may not be generated by the seat.

Take the 2G TL as an example. It was a known fact that it's "seat noise" was actually generated by the seat belt buckle rubbing against the seat belt buckle floor anchor, and not by the seat itself.

i did locate where the noise was coming from. The seat is definitively generating the noise.

What part is it coming from? Is it the lumbar support? Because I think I've heard a squeak from my lumbar support on my 2012 model, I adjusted the lumbar a little bit and it seems to have gone away.
