The W210s have Seat frame problems....I Have replaced several..
One can fix it without frame replacement Install a couple washers to fill up the slack in the frame pivot...Take a Look..Its Not that Hard!


I took of the seat mounting by taking four star bolts that holds the seat to the car floor. Traced the noise to the metal to metal contact on the front right corner of the seat. I can clearly see the existing "play" (in the front part of the seat height adjustment mechanism) is causing metal to metal contact that I simply eliminated by simply inserting a couple of washers in between the two corresponding parts (hence eliminating the metal to metal contact by making them farther apart).
