06 100 series with Back Seat Rattle (1 Viewer)

Finally got around to checking out my second-row seat vibration and discovered the actual locking mechanism that folds up into he seat bottom as the seat flips forward is loose compared to the other seat. On the 60% side, both locks are virtually unlovable, while on the 40% lock there's some lateral play with the mechanism. There doesn't appear to be a way to tighten the assembly, so I'm not sure if it came this way when new or what, but it seems obvious that this is the problem.

I will find a way to fix this, even if it means replacing the entire seat. More to come...

Great tip...found this to be the source of my 2nd row noise as well! I can't see how to tighten and remove the loose lateral sway. Were you able to tighten??? Thanks!!!

Just fixed most the rattle today. I pulled off the plastic cover on the bottom and added a real thin piece of rubber between the seat frame and the locking mechanism where the bolt goes through holding the locking mechanism and seat belt in place. It’s reduced the seat rattling significantly. The only thing I can see that may help sturdy up the seat a little more is adding more height to the round rubber peg that rests on the floor. I should’ve taken pictures while I had it open but forgot.

Okay guys here's my report I got the CAM buckle's and they are working great. the stay tight. There's still a little wiggle but i dont want to kill the hand hold thingi by making it too tight. But no more rattle of the seats. My only issue is that the only way i got it secure is getting the cam buckle all around the seat as you will see in the pic. Any other suggestions on how to secure it down?
