Armrest squeaks

First world issue, but anyone try to eliminate the squeaks associated with the hinged center console when leaned upon? Sounds like plastic on plastic. It's the only fit and finish issue I have with mine.

Mine squeaks as well when leaned upon.

I took a look at a couple of new G05's fully loaded and they all squeaked.

Grab a screwdriver and make sure things are tight!

Shit. If that does it I will bang my head against the wall. Would be akin to 'did you restart your computer' when it working right.

I just didn't want to blast in some Teflon lubricant if I could avoid it.

Lol.

You can always use silicon or lithium grease on the screws in the hinges...
