Anyone have pictures of where to grease the seat?

I thought they were in this thread but I tried that and it didnāt work for me. What fixed it was having the dealer swap the seat base. Are you still under warranty? Would be the best route.Anyone have pictures of where to grease the seat?
Finally had seat base replaced. No more thunkMine āthunksā as well. Waiting on part to come in
I had the dealership take care of the replacement. They did it right and it was done in about 1 1/2 hour. Seat pop has been gone about 6 months now.Anyone replace the seat frame on the own? Mine is popping, tried to grease it, that worked for awhile. Isnt their a TSB on this now. Rather not let the dealer fuck up my paint and trim.
If it only took them 1 1/2 cant be that hard. The part is only $80 and I can probably find a 15% coupon. To me that's worth just doing it in my garage. I'm just curious if the frame simply unbolts from the seat or if anything special is needed for the job.I had the dealership take care of the replacement.

If you are comfortable with a rachet set, disconnecting a couple electrical harnesses and strong enough to slowly remove the weight of the seat eiher back or out of the rig, you will be good.If it only took them 1 1/2 cant be that hard.

I have already tried greasing it. It worked for a bit but came back.If you are comfortable with a rachet set, disconnecting a couple electrical harnesses and strong enough to slowly remove the weight of the seat eiher back or out of the rig, you will be good.
I removed the seat by myself (putting painters tape on the painted door sill for protection) to find the source of the squeak and remedy it with 3-in-1 last summer. Very simple.
