Up till now my car has been rattle free, however over the last few days the seat belt rattles where you insert the tab into the anchor, has anyone suffered with this and is it an easy fix?

I have the same problem. I would also be interested in a fix.

Suffered this from day one. Creaking noise caused by buckle holder and your leather seat. Clean your leather with say, Lexol, at that area, and don't rise with water when you're done. Hope it helps.

I had the creaking noises and rattling. Finally, one day the belt would not insert into the locking mechanism and my stealership replaced the entire assembly. That fixed both problems. I suggest you break it to get it fixed. ...unlike what happened to mine, which was divine intervention.

Has anyone found another fix for this except to replace the entire seat belt assembly? The noise is really starting to bother me now.

Any luck with this?
As long as I keep that stupid buckle away from seat, it is okay.

Not sure if this applies, but on another car I had the same problem. I cut a bit from a black face towel and stuck it between the seat and the seatbelt receiver thing.
