Does anyone else have this issue?

My driver seat squeaks when accelerating, breaking… basically all the time. Tesla has adjusted it once and it helped for a month and then it’s back again louder than ever. I can understand a little noise but this is excessive.

just put a bit of this on the side of the seat where it's contacting the CC. Every Tesla owner needs a roll of it, and it's an instant fix. https://amzn.to/3BUmBtV

Sweet! That makes sense… my M3 is similar but not as bad as the CT

I have a service apt next week so
let’s see how that goes. I also ordered some to try out after the apt

thanks for the suggestion

No problem. In my experience of a dozen or so Tesla's, the $7 tape is a lot less effort than a service appt, where there seems to be a 50/50 chance that something else will break in the process. The bonus is the tape is a great fidget toy for your desk, you'll see what I mean when you get it :)

Thanks!

I tried all different seat positions and heights, and it was all the same

I dropped it off at the service center and picked it up today and they were able to adjust it so it doesn’t make the noise anymore
