My Ride: 530d Sport manual Mystic Blue, black Dakota leather, advanced air con, fold/split rear seats, Logic 7, business nav, 6cd, heated F seats

Anyone had issues with noise/rattles from the ski hatch/split rear seats in the E60?

Deciding whether to include them in my order.

Is there more road noise noticeable with these than the standard seats - due to reduced isolation from the boot area?

I use to have it on my previous 530D and also ordered on my new 535D. I never noticed any noise
caused by the Ski bag coming from the boot area.

I've always ordered the fold-down seats and have never regretted them. They come in handy quite often when you have to load a large box or something long. It saves you from having to place things directly on the back seat if it won't fit in the trunk...
