Has anyone else had a problem with a "creaky" seatback with an M Sports leather sports seat (drivers in my case). I've already had it back to the dealer who fixed it and said that I had moved the seat back/forward and it was in between positions. I was a bit dubious at the time but as the fault seemed to have disappeared I let it go. It is now back after about 3 weeks and I definitely haven't moved the seat. It is the seatback and not the base. Any feedback appreciated.

Morning matey,

What does it sound like. Does it sound Mechanical or is it like leather-on-leather contact sound?

Hi Darren,

Thanks for the quick response. It sounds mechanical, definitely not leather on leather. It creaks in the seat back whenever I move, feels more in the back than the seat base.

      Bumpy

      Hi Cameron From your description and the additional information it sounds like transmission wind up, probable cause is the rear tyres being new have a larger rolling radius than the front that is putting strain on the transfer case and also the diffs. I would check them carefully tyres are much cheaper than a new Diff or Transfer Case Dave

      Just took it out to see if I could pinpoint problem. It seems to happen at low speed eg when in slow traffic, then I go to accelerate in 2nd say, it feels a little bumpy but stops when build up speed.

      Hi, It's an X Drive, recently had 2 new rear tyres, have had them checked. Front tyres are the same. Happens when goingbin straight line. Happens when just driving along, intermittently.

      Morning Cameron Welcome to the Forum A bit more information would help us make a guess at what is happening Which X1 model do you have Front wheel drive or X drive? What condition are the tyres and are they all the same make? When the bumby ride happens is it on the straight or in bends does it vary with speed? Does it happen under acceleration? Dave
