Click clack sounds from seat
Anyone else have click/clack type of sounds from the seat when you go over speed bumps or hit a section of street where you bounce up and down a little?
I cannot stand squeaks rattles etc and it's driving me nuts.

I can duplicate the sound by bouncing in the seat without the truck moving. It does it with the seatbelt on me or just hanging. It's something in the seat track but I can't duplicate it well enough with my head in the floor board to find out what it is.
This truck makes more noises than any vehicle i've ever had.. ughh

I'm with ya, I absolutely love the way this truck looks inside and out, the features etc. Mine is full optioned so I have all the cool gadgets, but cheesus the facking noises..
I have a clunk sometimes when turning the wheel I can't find. I had a rattle sound that occured every time I turned the wheel or hit bumps and that was from the steering position sensor on the steering column down in your shin area, I fixed that already. I had an issue where the brake pedal squeaked every time you pressed it and I've fixed that. My rear seats make noise on the plastic trim and I still need to get after that. But the seat annoys me more than anything because it clacks with every bump I hit.
If I move the seat bottom all the way up or down it stops, the front part of the seat bottom, the part that tilts up and down up under your knees. So I know its something in the motor or track or mounts for that part of the seat but I haven't been able to find it. Someone will find it eventually I was hoping someone had already though.

70 pages and over a 1000 replies...have fun! And this is just the sticky they created for it, there are still others.
My seat makes a slight shift and a noticeable pop when I'm on a windy road.

Thanks for the lead.
There's 2 things consistent about GM-trucks... I suck at navigating the website and the posts are 50+ pages of people complaining or saying they got it fixed but little to no info or pictures on how it was fixed. I will keep digging in that thread and try to find answers. So far I'm 6 pages in reading every post and it's either "mine does it too/mine does something similar" or "I took it to the dealer and got it fixed and it's okay so far or it's right back to the same issue". Again with no information of what was done. Fack.
Sad thing is this is in my wheel house of what I do and I know I'm going to have to fix it on customer vehicles but I can't even fix my own damn truck lol

I have the same issue with my truck. Driver seat "clicks" when I go over minor bumps in the road. The clicks to me sound like two small plastic tabs clicking on each other. It drives me crazy. I got fed up with it one day and raised it up all the way then climbed in the back seat and started investigating. I couldn't find anything out of place so I just started prying with my hands and tugging on wires to move their positions slightly. After doing that the seat didn't click for almost a month then it started clicking again. I need to look at it again. If I can find what is clicking ill take some pictures and post them. Maybe the same parts are clicking on your seat.
