What to do about noisy driver's seat
Does anyone have a driver's seat that makes clicking sounds when speedind up and slowing down? I actually can feel it too. Apparently the problem is in the seat, not the rails. I took it into an Audi dealer, and they had a regional rep look at it. The rep said it was w/in spec. grrrr. This is bs. I even mentioned stuff I've read here...ie. possible problem w/ the plastic seat clips, etc. Anyone have any suggestions/help? oh yeah, I have a 2001 225 TTC. thanks.

R U under warranty? If yes, have them fix it without question. Also, >
(serious question not a knock) are you a big person? That may have something to do with it. Not meant to offend anyone. I'm 5"8 170lbs and had wear on my leather seats in the first 6 months that was replaced by Audi without issue.

nope. 160 lbs. yes, still under warranty....
the dealer is telling me their hands are tied since the regional rep said it was normal. Do I need to contact AoA directly?

Mine just started
doing the seat noise on acceleration/slow down. My drivers info display sometimes loses a row of pixels. I'm hoping I can stand the annoying seat noise until the cluster goes so I can bring it in for both problems at the same time.
