Squeeky seats

Hi guys. I'm still pretty new here. So I figured I'd ask you guys first. I recently bought a G35 Sedan 2003, used of course. My driver seat is driving me crazy with the squeaking it makes whenever I move around in it.
My question is this common? Or did a really big fat guy have this car before me and just keep moving around in it like to break it in or something? 2) I can hear a squeak from my back seats as well. Seems like the back passenger side. Not sure if its the same type of problem though.

Is this easy to fix? Do I have to take it to a dealer? I bought extended warranty, but I don't think it covers anything like this. I'm hoping it is something I could just tighten up or something, and not something that is just warn out and needs replacing.

Thanks in advance for any help.

There may be a TSB on the squeaky seats. I have a coupe and the seat does squeak a bit when you adjust your shoulders.

Squeaky seats

I have it too. Took it to the dealer and they replaced the motor. A couple of months later, squeaks are coming back. I'm going to live with it for now.

The dealer tech states that links are bad, will replace under warranty. And, yes if you adjust the seats to a almost 90 degree position, they will not squeal, but, thats not comfortable for me, so will see how it turns out after they replace whatever they need to replace.

Had it fixed 3 times and replaced the entire seat. No Joy, it still squeaks and they said all the cars have it. Oh well, I'll just ignore it and turn up the music.

Mine is an 03. I did by extended warranty from the dealer I got it from (not an Infiniti dealer though) I got it with the highest coverage there was to get. Will I have to pay for it, or should that warranty work well enough for me?

I guess only one way to find out. Its really annoying.
Thanks for the responses guys
