Squeaky sport seat

[mchott]

I have a squeak in the latch mechanism of my passenger sport seat that appears to be due to some looseness in the seat hinge - at certain speeds and certain road surfaces, the seat will shake just enough to squeak in sync with the vibration in the seat. If I release the latch and slightly fold the seat over to the front, the squeek disappears.

Is anyone familiar with a way to tighten the seat hinge to reduce the shake, or adjust the latch mechanism to eliminate the squeek? (the seat appears to be firmly bolted to it's frame)

Thanks!

Try WD-40 if you just want to address the noise. As long as the seat is bolted correctly, that may be you $1 solution.
