Noisy Seats

[jicko]

I just got this '99 996C2, full leather....

I noticed that there are a lot of rubbering noises, squeaking in the chair....

Any solutions? Recommendations of what I can try to do?

I have noticed that in my seats as well.

It's not the seat that's squeaking, it's the leather surface.

Rubbing noises against my back especially, I don't think there's anything that can be done in my case.

1) Are there any leather conditioner or something like that which can soften the surface and reduce the squeaking?

2) I think mine is a little more serious.... since I don't need to be sitting in the seat, I can just push on various part of the seat and those noise come out....

Just spotted this thread.

I had a squeak in my passenger seat while sitting on it and when you pushed on the backrest (mid way up, lumbar support area). So, i unclipped the cushion off the seat (done by putting your fingers of both hands down the side of the centre cushion, grabbing it hard and lifting it firmly up and off). There are three clips (from memory) on the inside of the top of the cushion which clip onto a bar. Anyway, when you have done this, have a prod around and locate where the noise is. Mine turned out to be the foam packing on the inside of the back of the seat rubbing against the plastic of the souround of the seat. I just stuffed some folded cardboard where it was rubbing........... sorted!!
