Squeaky drivers seat when turning
Has anyone else had this problem? It seems like the drivers side seat makes a squeaking noise whenever i turn the car. I tried looking around the seat for anything loose but everything looks ok. Could some bolts be loose? Its starting to drive me crazy because it seems every turn i take i hear a little squeak.

I had the same problem with that squeaking sound when you made turns, yes very annoying. My friend did the fix for me. He removed the whole seat out of the car, and under the seat there's 2 pins that you saw off. I think they were called locator pins or something like that. The pins had a plastic cover on them, you'll be able to tell. Saw off those 2 pins and it should fix it. Hope that helps!

Ha im glad im not the only one with this problem. Im surprised Lexus didn't catch this...I think this is wayyy more annoying than a squeaky dash. Also, its not because of being fat, im 170lbs, and this stupid plastic piece just pisses me off now that i have to take my freaking seat apart

How do you remove the seat backs of the front seats?
I had the same squeak as you. I could hear it when I moved in the seat (really annoying because mine is a manual tranny and when I pushed the clutch in you could hear the squeak). When I pushed on the side bolster I could hear it. I fixed mine with the seat in the car. Took me about 10 minutes. Removed the back cover from the seat. Then I worked a small piece of cotton cloth up into the seat back between the steel and the foam. Been 4 months and hasn't made a sound since.
I have a squeak or more like rubbing noise coming from my side bolster, the question is how do you get that back off? I see the two screws that are underneath but what do you do after that?
