Old car yeah?
The pass seat springs can probably be fixed by removing seat and applying some lube to them.
The heater - maybe http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SU9588D7DE

I had a b6 Passat once. It was the most rattly car I'd ever owed. Ever inch of the dash seemed to rattle or creak at the slightest road imperfection.

I solved the problem by selling it. Sorry...
