Does anyone know how to get rid of the popping/clunking noise this seat makes when you hit a bump (other than avoiding bumps of course)?

No sorry. Not that I know of. There really is no way of stopping it from doing so. I am having that problem all of my seats.

Mine doing the same thing. I tapped like you said, and it stopped the noise, thanks for the tip. Probably due to a cheap fan bearing, hopefully it will last for awhile. Toshiba charges $150.00 bucks just to open up the case if you have to get it repaired. I wonder if this is user-fixable.

Mine also wiggled but I went back to it the next day, and got it really tight. I think the adjuster helps. It's worth the $10. Another option is taking it to a car seat inspection. They will get it tight for you. I'd gotten mine so tight that the inspector left it alone, saying I installed it perfectly!

Not sure how to answer this. Could be toilet is not level, therefore causing this to happen. Have you tried to put it clear up and "hold" it for a second or two? Seems like this happened with my first one of these (this is my second purchase of this toilet seat and I LOVE mine) and we had to do this for a little while after we installed it--almost like it needed to be trained!! Try it -- can't hurt!

Hi Patricia...I had the same thing happen to mine but the high pitched noise eventually occurred on all of the speeds. It was not constant...it would come and go but it was very annoying. Couldn't figure out a way to get into the unit to see what was going on. Seemed to me to be some sort of lubrication issue. In any event we really liked the air purifier so we just purchased a new one. It works great and it's one of the least expensive on the market.

We too had the jar of red wheel bearing grease. However, it was the bolts. My husband was obviously and over achiever in putting it together and made sure it was good and tight. However, when the bolts were loosened the noise totally stopped and there hasn't been the slightest squeek since. Good Luck!

Make sure you push the wheels in far enough. If I remember correctly, I had to push really hard; you should hear a big "pop" when that in. Hope this helps.

We have actually experienced the same issue with the banging sound. It isn't consistent from use to use or even within one session. It doesn't appear to alter the performance, but it is certainly annoying. It isn't clear what the cause is so I'm hoping it isn't causing internal damage to the machine.

Does anyone have the same problem as in this video, where the seat rocks back and forth? _https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2ZFzP0czM0

I had the same problem. I ended up buying another seat without any tightening bolts.

I'd also suggest making sure all the bolts are tight. They loosen up over time and I find that giving them a quick tightening occasionally helps reduce squeaking noises.

Can you tell me what you told them that they came and did this? Did it do anything for the popping/cracking sound also?Thanks!

Darryl, how did you knocked out the plastic insert out of the seat tube!?? I'm having a really hard time with that. Thank you!.

I am so sorry, I have never had that problem. I would have a Schwinn expert help you with that. Sorry, and best wishes.

Have the same problem with mine. I agree with the others....still like the seat. Perhaps we should contact the company and they will modify the design.

We found a U tube video that told how to replace them without removing the seats. I don't remember the name of the video, however it worked well. Sorry
