Recaro seats noise

[Inferno]

I've just pinned down the latest rattle from the car, it's down to the Recaro seat. At the front of the seat just where the back of your knees go there is an extendable section, an it is this section that is causing a loud rattle. It's fine with a passenger because they put pressure on the seat and spot the noise.

Anyone else noticed this? Anything I can do?

Mine does it, I find that if i just push it all the way in it stops. It only rattles when extended

Definately worse when extended, but still evident when fully in (never used to be noisey) might have to see if there is something I can wedge in it to stop it - not ideal, but after a brief look it appears that part of the seat is constructed using spring clips not nuts, bolts or screws that can be tightened.

Welcome to the exclusive 'Recaro Seat Rattle to Drive You Nuts' club.

The dealers have been known to fix this so perhaps it's one to consider when going in for your next service.

Mine was doing it for a while but as if by magic/being possessed has now stopped.

Cheers

Mine stopped after getting a Janspeed exhaust. How weird

after owning a 205 gti for over 8 years the trophy seems quite refined.
the interior is just as rattlely but the trophy dosen't creak like the 205 did.
