Default Creaky Driver Seat - about to break? or just a loose screw/bolt ?

My seat's creaking at the back when I get into the car, or if I move around significantly. It doesn't happen if I sit in the passenger seat. Is it just likely to be a loose bolt or two? I know what someone will say, lose some weight you fat bas****d, thanks ;-)

I searched and found <a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a6/msgs/624678.phtml">this thread</a> but it offers no solution.

Try to tighen up all you can? Maybe even ask the dealer next time you are in for service.

Default Trying to tighen up at the gym, it's hard work. (y'all got me doing it now)

It sounds like whatever might be wrong is inside the seat itself, I ain't going in there. I guess the dealer will have to fix it, or the local independent that does my winter-summer wheel change.
