2007 Tundra seat pops

[Biff Trout]

I have the same problem and took the step of removing my seat and looking at it on workbench. The noise is emanating from the backrest pivot area on my seat.

Seat is manual cloth bench.

I tried all seat adjustments in hopes of getting it to stop prior to pulling the seat but no dice.

Gleagle Tundra, if the dealer fixes the pop without replacing the seat, find out what they did and post here if you can.

The left hand side of my driver seat "pops" when I slide to the left to get out of the truck. It's done it since I got it, makes a double "pop" noise.

Any news on this................... it will be my first warranty issue .

I had my seat changed 2 times. Go to your dealers and make them change it.

Funny, when my seat pops, the wife and kids complain about a strange unpleasant smell in the truck and the window lock mysteriously engages.
Anybody else have this problem or just my truck??????????

Sorry guys I couldn't resist

I had the same problem (cloth bench). My buddy is a tech at Toyota. He tore apart the backrest and found the webbing/springs binding and making noise when pressure was applied.

Then I got a new driver seat! So far so good, no more noise! Take your guys trucks in!

My seat does both. It is a power bucket. Makes a popping sound when stopping or starting. Thought maybe it had something to do with the motor on the seat. It has also just started making a crackling noise when getting out. It sounds like there is plastic under the cloth on the seat, making a crackling noise. I will have to get it looked at.

There are other threads on this website about this issue; search "seat clicks" or
"seat noise".

I have had the same problem with my 07 DC 5.7L and I had it to the dealer twice before they figured out the issue on the third try.

Got it back today and they said the seat track pins were worn and replaced them.

Hope this helps.

My 07 CM(cloth bucket, power drivers) makes the popping sound when accelerating or braking. I don't even notice it anymore. Glad to hear I'm not the only one. Guess I can put away the Richard Simmons workout video and take Jenny Craig off of the speed dial. Thanks.

Cloth,bench, seat no power. Noticed it the first week i had it. tokk two months to get a new seat in.

It's doing it again but not as bad. If you crank the front adj knob a little it seems to lessen the frequency of the "popping". I'll take it back as soon as I feel it willl do it when the Tech drives it.

This is a split bench. It feels like there is alot of play in the Adj. mechanisms. It takes a bit of finesse to get the seat to slide and latch forward and backwards evenly.
