Is there a specific type of torque wrench I need to loosen/tighten that screw? I can't really tell what the shape is in your pictureThe bolt in the center here is what I undid, raised up this foot and put some 3m under, and bolted back down.
Use a torque wrench set to 35lb to make sure you're safe!
Note yours will look different because I currently have the plastic cladding that goes around this part of the seat rail removed.
T55 is what it’s called I do believe!
Gotcha, I'm a torque wrench noob so bear with me.
Yes! Make sure you get the right size bit to fit your torque wrench.
And here for the torx size / type :I finally got around to removing my drivers seat to remove the base cover (warranty claim) so the seat was fully removed and installed.
This is the info that my dealer printed off the system for me :
I did the above for the four mounting bolts (no Loctite on them as they didn't have it from the factory).
Interestingly those torques are considerably higher than the other info posted above BUT ... Ford also changed the mounting bolts at some point during 2020, see here :

So maybe an increased torque value was required to stop the squeak and the increased value then required a more robust tool head to put up with production line demands / longevity expectations ?
Anyhow, it's early days but the squeak that I did have is now gone
I should note that I also removed and re torqued the four M10 Torx T50 bolts that secure the seat back to the base. They had blue thread lock from the factory (which I renewed) and I used the same 47Nm as the M10 seat mounting bolts.
