    Hello,

    Have you tried any hack to reduce the rear seat’s vibration noise?

    My Prius V has faux leather seats and the noise made when seats rub against each other is extremely annoying to me. Rear seats should have been latched to the frame like the Toyota Venza to keep them from vibrating. I tried rubbing leather conditioner on them and it was no help.

    Thanks

    Can't help, either. Hate leather and "softex" pleather vinyl seats. I specifically bought the simple two level v with cloth seats.

    You can put felt in places where the contact and rub together,

    Be sure you put the seat belt latches into the holders in left right and roof. No noise here. There is about a 1 cm gap between the 60 40 split. There is a buckle holder strap there in the crack. (Can't upload pics with my new phone otherwise I was just in the car inspecting).
