Cloth. Creaks worse than...um, I can't think of anything that creaks nearly as much. It's been in before and it will go in again because nothing has fixed it.

mine, too

My seat (leather) kind of feels like it's "broken" in the middle of the back. No noise, but it sort of shifts (for lack of a better word) when I move sometimes. Right in the middle of the drivers seat. Anybody else? Is this what you are describing?

It is in the middle of the driver's seat. It does move slightly but also makes noise.

I havn't had any noise problems with my leather seats. Maybe your suffering from some bad brackets? I'm guessing here, dealer will help you out. Good luck.

My seat squeak no matter what I do... seems to be fixed when I put plastic washer and not tighten it as tight as I was. But when the plastic washer wear out the squeak comes back.

It is a fat alarm
