My dealer said they all rattle. Nothing can be done to fix it.

A quick shot of Troll-Be-Gone under the seat usually takes care of it--for a while, anyway. The factory spray is designed to work with Germanic Trolliferous PainInTheAssus. Open the passenger door before spraying to enhance a quick exit.

My passenger seat rattle turned out to be the backrest locking levers. I used some felt on both levers, which seemed to solve the issue.

the levers have been an issue for me as well. removed the rear seat backs to get rid of 2/3 of the rattles. how exactly did you felt the passenger seat lever? disassembly? thanks.

Mine too and been thinking it was the transmission carrier/bushings.......grab that passenger seat hard and pop up the sunroof......my 06 has seat warmers and I'm pretty certain those motors under the seat AND the seat upper portion is the problem. Its EXACTLY like everyone else's rattling seat.

Seat warmers have no moving parts- its electric radiant heating.

Funny. I think my passenger seat rattles but I'm not sure because it's too hard to hear over my glovebox rattle.
