    S5 Seat Back Squeaking

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I just bought a 2009 S5, and me being as tall as I am need the seats all the way back. Problem is that the seat is now rubbing on the center console causing basically a squeaking noise. Have any of yall had this problem and if so how did you fix it?

    Mine did that. Mine were'nt all the way back, but it would rub the side bolster on the armrest on left turns. I slid my armrest to the 'forward' position. Took the bulk of the rubbing off the seat side.

    Same thing here. The right bolster rubs on the center console especially when turning with body lean that direction. I've used some leather conditioner on both to try and reduce the friction. Armrest usually stays forward all the time, but still makes annoying sounds on occasion.

    I used some electrical tape to hold a piece of felt in place between the seat and the console.
