couldn't the grommet be purchased as a hardware store saving a trip to the dealer and labor costs? ...or is this one of those proprietary types of situations where nothing works quite like something sent right from Germany!?

 

I'm sure it probably could, but the dealer is only 1 mile from my work, and it's covered under warranty so it costs me nothing.

 

Please post part numbers ordered. Thanks!

 

do you have pictures of the fix?

Thanks

 

Bearing Sleeve 955-522-782-00, and two seat back pivots 955-522-785-00. Quiet at last!!!

 

Unfortunately, I was in a big hurry so I did not snap any pictures. If you want a schematic, look here:

The only reason I improvised is that I did not want to wait and did not want to drop off at the stealer although I have a year left before he can steal...lol

The parts should not cost more than a couple of bucks per point so maybe 10 dollars in plastic. For those our of warranty, this maybe should be a spares inventory...

 

I have a 2014 Cayenne that seems to be having the same rattle inside the plastic cover that goes over the bearing. I think that the part number above just covers Cayennes up to to 2010. Does anyone have a part number (or solution) for the newer Cayennes? Someone said that they might have even changed the seats so that this part isn't used anymore (but they couldn't confirm...). Thanks!
