Rear Kombi Seat Rattle?

[Camperjoe]

Has anyone had the same or can tell me how to resolve this as its driving me nuts! I think it is coming from the folding hinge mechanism, but a bit dangerous to pop to check whilst on cruise control
Its the double folding one in the rear and not coming from floor level so how do I get into the hinge to pack it out or something? Does it with the seat folded too. Any ideas? Thanks!

I took the seat out and put it back in, seemed to work for some reason, maybe the seats don’t click in 100% properly sometimes. Not sure to be honest, it happens to mine quite a lot as the seats are in and out a lot.

ended up going back to dealer to trace mine - think it was the floor mounts - they put a lot of spray grease there .
also told me it was because my van was so hard ( lowered 50 on H&Rs ) !!
anyway , its not come back but definitely a two person job to trace . Good luck ...

Cheers all, yes I did ask my lad to listen, but anyone who has a 17 year old with no interest whatsoever will know what I'm up against. I have hooked it out and made sure it is then fully hooked in, but it sounds more mid folding area. I have also given it a clout to see if I can make it do it, but typically it has to be more of a resonance to make it rattle. May try a smidge of grease on the fixing points for starters many thanks for time to reply!

You could give WD40 Dry PDF at try, seen others mention it with good results.

Mmm cheers looking that one up now as I don't ideally want grease as it will soon get gritty. Thanks

Had the same, thought it was the sliding door but turned out to be loose fittings on the single seat. The dealer swapped my seat over.
