I have an odd issue whereby I can hear what can only be described as a creaking noise coming from below me (drivers side) when driving, it is more noticeable at low speed as the engine road noise increases it drowns out the creaking noise.

It went into the OPC yesterday who have informed me they have fixed the issue and mentioned adjusting the seat and also cleaning the helper springs on the rear suspension, needless to say the issue still remains.

I decided to have a look at the seat and when you adjust the seat back on too you can see there are 3 pins on the seat mechanism that drop into the rail to lock in place, let's call them 1-2-3, sometimes 1-2 will drop in, other times 1-3, others 1-2-3 I assume this relates to the seat position on the rail itself.

Has anyone had a similar issue and is aware of a fix?
 
I get creaks from my seats from time to time. I just assumed it came with the territory of massive pieces of CRP bolted to metal seat rails.

I have the odd intermittent rattle around the cup holders and passenger door card too. GT cars are unlikely to be silent in the cabin while driving so I live with their "character" ;)
