Anyone else’s seats creak really bad from the carbon when getting in and out?

Crikey, didn't take long to find an issue...one day in? Take it back to Teesside.

They are a PITA when your old like me

Mine creak from time to time, both driver and passenger side, plus there's an ocassional rattle from around the passenger seatbelt inertia reel area. My cage also pings now and then. Plus I've got an exhaust that booms a bit between 2k-3k if you're crawling through the rev range and you can hear my LWFW jingle jangle from time to time. Then there's the pebbledashing of the underside and wheelarches from stones, speed induced tyre roar and general wind noise.

All are a total non-issue to me - it's not a Rolls Royce!

Just assume it’s the nature of the carbon fiber but next time I am near the opc I will get them to have a look

My 2011 Spyder’s carbon buckets made no noise at all getting in and out.

Lol my knees are knackered but not that knackered, it looks like it’s where the plastic meets the carbon where the holes are for the harness.
