I rarely get to drive the Macan on my own, but i have noticed an intermittent squeak which appears to come from the passenger seat when nobody is sitting in it. Anyone else noticed this? Not sure if its the headrest which don't seem to lock into place and will slide backwards and forwards without pressing the button on the side? Is that right? Its hard to drive and with one hand holding various parts of the seat to stop the noise and, of course, the wife has never noticed it before!

Its going in on 16th May for new door sensor, for seats to move back, so i will be adding this to the list.

Cheers

I had exactly this and it was the headrest. I adjusted it down to its lowest which is perfect for my Mrs and now, no more squeak 😊

I had a creak from the occupied passenger seat, it was the seat belt. An adjustment was made when in for service that cured it. The OPC identified the source, not I.

I also get strange noises from the occupied passenger seat … it only happens when I start driving the bus like a hot hatch :mrgreen:
