Hi guys,

Does anyone know how the stop the passenger headrest from producing a low freq. vibrate/rattle almost all of the time? Strange as the drivers doesn't do this.. I've already tried, an eqv to WD40 and applying some tape, but no joy.

Here is the culprit anyway..

Doesn't do it on the GTI ;)

In all seriousness it may well be the actual recepticals for the metal posts that are themselves creaking within the top of the seat - without a dismantle though I can't see any way of actually checking/fixing this.

Ahh so that means I would need to take the seat apart?
