Tried the WD-40 trick and it works for now. I hope it lasts a few months. Thanks for this idea!

The bushings underneath the seats. You have to recline the seat backward to see

Genius tip!! Did this on the weekend as per previous direction and hey presto, problem solved! Don’t ask me how, whether the lubrications dampens the ‘clicking/shifting’ feeling, but it’s definitely solved it for now, thanks!!

Dry lube home crepot

skibag is correct! Try dry lube from the Home Crepot! Less than $5.00

I sprayed the white plastic clips over 5 months ago, and the shifting stopped. Guessing those clips are there to flex a bit, but when the lube breaks down the shifting becomes more prominent
