Squeaky seat, not touching console

[eiger3970]

How to take out and apart the 2016 seats?
I have read multiple squeaky seat threads, which describe the seat symptom of sounding like an old taxi.
However I can't see how to take apart the seats?
A bit nervous to pull the whole seat off the rails and out of the car, but might be needed if I can find a clear video on the steps.
Squeak seems to be inside the seat, where fabric rubs when accelerating hard or turning corners.

Try fixyourtesla.com. it has all the procedures for service.

Thanks, that helps, but not the parts I'm looking for such as 1008115-03-j.
Ideally the Tesla Service Centre should fix my seat squeak. Might try again later when I have more time.

Ok, researching how to take apart the seat.

Issue seems to be with larger people...I'm 180 cm and 90 kg.

Rich Rebuilds says with pliers, the leather front will come apart from the plastic back. This should let me spray WD40 to stop any possible internal squeaks. Unsure if the front will reattach and if any airbag will go off though?

This forum thread doesn't help, unless the seat base springs are also squeaking (need to look for these).

I found this at fixyour tesla which might help.
