Passenger side creak here. Will check bolts today.

 

^ Thanks for the info....


^^ Mine creaks when empty.....

 

mine only when empty as well

 

Mine only does it when wifey is sitting in it. I tell her it is a sign that she should gain some weight !

 

Bolts on passenger side were loose . Two out of four that is. I removed all four and put a small amount of loctite on them because this is the second they have become loose! Did Lexus put any kind of material on threads to eliminate this? My driver side gets way more use and no problems there.

 

me too! i'm glad i'm not the only one. it sounds like a busted mattress kinda creaking sound!

 

Thanks for the heads up everyone, 14mm and 2 minutes and it is all fixed.

 

which bolts are we talking about exactly

 

The four bolts that hold the seat rails to the floor.

 

So I finally checked my bolts and they were all tight (surprisingly)

BUT - we did solve the creak by bending the door frame in, by the top window rail.. about 1 mm..
Crazy I know..!! but it worked.. since the glass is now snug against the frame gaskets.
I got tipped off by a Master Tech on some “creak/vibrating fixes”

I now have no creaks! The rf and lr bolts were super loose. I put some thread lock on the bolts when putting them back in so hopefully this won't be a recurring affair. Thanks for info fellas!

 

Glad this was posted in the forums. I just couldn't pinpoint where this creaking noise was originating from, so decided to just tight down all eight bolts on both front seats and the squeaking noise is now gone.

It didn't seem like any of the bolts were loose though, so maybe the 0.5-1mm of tightening worked.

 

MRxSLAYx, do you do this from inside or from underneath the car? Thanks.

 

4 Bolts on each seat, covered by the black plastic caps....
