Very squeaky seat driving me nuts
So my 05 ES 330 has a very squeaky passenger seat. It creaks and squeaks only when someone is sitting in it. Also, it doesn't sound like it s coming from the track. Seems to me like the squeak is in the seat itself. Is there anything I can do about this? It really drives me crazy in parking lots or when going over speed bumps. Thanks in advance!

Are you certain the squeak not not caused by the leather upholstery rubbing? (where the seat cushion and the seat back meet)
I also notice a squeak when pushing on the seat back near the side where the vinyl covered seat back cover meets with the leather. However this noise doesn't occur unless it is very cold which is not too often in SoCal.

I have the same issue with my 93 LS400, squeaky leather front seats rubbing against seatback and driving me nuts. I use this to lube the areas where the leather folds into the plastic section. It is the Dupont Kry-gpl215-5 Krytox 215gpl Extreme Pressure Grease 5 oz Tube. It is inert and very stable, will not harm plastic nor leather. Works great!
