'06 SR5.....I have a squeek coming from the rear passenger side seat, just wondering if anyone had any ideas or could give me an idea what to look for. Loose bolt maybe? I rather not take it to the dealer unless I absolutly have to. Anyone else had this prob?

Thanks

The rear passenger back latch squeeks. Put a piece of electical tape on the latch loop where it meets the seat back.

OK so I take it this prob has occured before. That is exactly what it sounds like. Got to love this forum. Thanks.

Does that count as a Mod???

:D
 
Yeah --- I call it the "I can't believe I had to put electrical tape on my $30k vehicle" mod ....

:lmao: so true, but at least it's a cheap and easy fix and doesn't require a trip to the service department :o
 
hi there ive got 06 t4r sr5 white, pretty much the same as yours :D

yes, i also hear that squeeky noise from the rear seat. but it's no worse than squeeks and rattles i hear from dashboard, etc.

i try to think (meditate?) that t4r is a truck, thus you shouldn't expect the quietness of a sedan... arg... i mean, japanese sedans :D

(my previous car was a chevy sedan and it's far worse in terms of noise... i mean, in terms of everything!)

one thing that drove me nearly nuts was this rattling noise from the sunglass holder. i even made a trip to the dealership to address this issue. but inexplicably, i wasn't able to reproduce noise when i was test-driving with a mechnic next to me. and the funny thing is, the car has since been as quiet as lexus (not that i own one).
 
The squeeek from the rear seat is very annoying truck or no truck, I have no other squeeks anywhere...knock on wood.

I just greased mine and so far it seems to work.

Yes the grease works also but I use the seat all the time with the dog and I know I would get grease on me or the dog (he is white).

I'm amazed at the overall build quality of my truck. There isn't one squeak or rattle (knock on wood). Occasionally the little compartment door above the cup holders in the front will rattle. But not enough to complain. I traded an 05 Subaru, that thing sounded like it was going to fall apart over the slightest bump.
