Talk Morgan Forums Thread Like Summary - Found My Squeak

In my right ear. I thought it was either the hood seal on the rear bulkhead, or the hood frame. I tried lubing everything, but it made no difference. I was never able to replicate the noise when investigating. Today I had to move the car in a car park, I didn't put the seatbelt on and no squeak! I've realised it's the seat belt rubbing against the leather piping at the top of the seat. I'm amazed it can produce such a loud squeak, it's loud enough to still be irritating at 60mph!

Has anyone had similar and found an elegant solution?

I've an off-cut of material with a 3M sticky back, which I've stuck over the area for the moment. Looks awful, but it works for now. Really, the metal belt guide could do with being an inch or more higher, but I don't know how safe that would be. Alternatively, maybe the guide could incorporate a sleeve the belt passes through, so it doesn't rub the seat piping. I'm not sure how that could attach to the guide. It also needs a way of fitting it without dismantling the seatbelt.

All my cars have a kind of squeal. It is only apparent when:
1) Mrs F is in the passenger seat
2) I am “making progress”

On a trip down the Fosse Way to visit friends in Somerset many years ago, she had lost her voice. Journey time reduced by 30 minutes.

Thanks Martin - you have solved my Plus Four squeak too - same mystery, same location !
