They finally got the parts in, but the tech who is the "Integra specialist" is on vacation so appointment is made for next Thursday.

Do you know what new parts they are claiming it is now? I haven't taken my in yet as I was unsure if I wanted to play this rabbit hole game with them and be in and out of loaner for days/weeks at a time. It actually stopped making the noise last week when it got insanely hot here but now it's back again lmao.

I am unsure of the parts, but will post up as I've done prior. This car is $3k from being paid off so I want to document everything while the warranty is active and it is still considered a new car.

The noise has been on the tamed side last week since we are approaching summer.

Update again. I picked up the car after two days of it in the shop. Attached are the parts they replaced.

I got the new ADX as a loaner. The interior is a nicer Integra. I think it will sell well given its size.

The service advisor said the tech went thorough with the repair this time and found shoddy work done prior (most likely by the first dealership). I hope it’s gone forever.

See my post above. I just picked up the car and took photo of parts replaced.

Almost a month after the latest fix, so far so good. No squeaking noises from the seat after ~500 miles.

Good to know. I'll push them to fix mine since i'm due for an oil change/tire rotation soon anyway.

Yours still good? I had them replace the same exact parts from your list about a month back and it was fine for all of a week and now the sqeaking is back and worse than ever. Hopefully yours is good for the longterm but i'm tempted to see if they will just replace the entire seat rather than playing this could be this or that game.

Yeah. At around 11k miles now and still good. Good luck with that. I tried to have them replace the seat at some point and they said corporate had to approve it which they did not.

Mine definitely sounds like it's in the same place as last time so i'm not sure why the repair parts didn't work permanently. Maybe since i've already brought it in once they might be more willing to do a full seat replacement if I complain enough

My entire seat was replaced and the squeaking came back a few thousand miles later.

The only permanent fix was my toddler, sitting on my lap, moving the seat back and forth between the two memory positions about six times in a row. Miraculously, the sound hasn't come back in the 6 months since he did that!

I saw your post about that previously and tried that a few times while I'm sitting in my car and it hasn't worked unfortunately.

I don't understand where the noise is coming from but it does sound partially like metal flexing to rubbing together. It usually only makes the noise if I push my lower back into the seat. Really taking the enjoyment out of driving the car when it sounds like an 80's shit box when I get in and out of it.
