Annoying squeak from my belt!
 

Hello...

Just one of these annoying things really. Decided to tackle it today and go crazy with the WD40 but it hasn't sorted it :Whatever_ it's coming from the section above the seat, you know, when you pull it...

Has anyone else had this? Do you actually need to take the mechanism apart :freak3:

Remove he lower part of the b pillar, the part the belt comes out of. On the back are horizontal ribs. They can all be cut off with a craft knife. Voila squeak gone.

+1 Tiny little trick, takes less than 5 mins and a knife..and such a relief when its gone.

Easy job, did both sides in my blobeye in under 15 minutes using a leatherman. The cover is only held in with 1 Clip/plug then it pulls off. Just trim the top strengthening bar - you'll probably find it's thinner than the rest and quite sharp. No need to sand it flat or anything just cut the majority of it away. :thumb:

Thanks for this tip/fix.. I can stop taking the tablets now.! :thumb:

10 minutes max for both sides.:p

mines the same job for weekend

i have a day off today that is on my list of jobs

Just picked up my first Impreza today, guess what? Both seat belts squealed. Fixed them with this tip, thanks! :)
