Creaking Driver seat

Hi,
I have had my 2013 LCI Comp pack for a few weeks now, the car is superb, however I have a creak coming from my drivers multifunction M seat. it does it when turning right and going over bumps where you bounce in the seat. I have silicone sprayed as much as I can under the seat but it persists. If I move the seat around it goes for a while but always comes back. is there an area to target? thinking about taking it out and greasing it all up.
thanks

Ive had a few seat noises

Removing back panel and spraying silicon spray on joints always fixed it

Hey bo, LCi models are '14,'15,'16 .. also, if its a '13 it isnt a comp pack

however, pinpoint the creak and hit it with PAM no stick cooking spray.. laugh if u want but it works..
could be a loose anchor bolt too though.. if it is tighten it back down

but not LCi right? im honestly just curious. your 2013's there have the LED headlights?

so.. in europe you guys have 2011-2016 f10 m5.. we only have 13-16 (m cars have always had a 2 year absence between models in the US until the f90 which was only 1 year.. bmw is gonna fuck up by making them less rare, and theyre already blowing it with m badged non-m cars now.. i hate it!!!) and no comp pkg on f10 here until 14.

you guys def get first dibs and some power perks.

US gets higher spec standard options, like m seats and merino leather.. from what im gathering anyway..

Think the so called LCI ones started in late '13 in UK and the led lights were an option.There was a one year wait here between the F10 and F90 version.
Must say I agree Bm are making for a confused and jumbled market with the dreaded 'M packet' addition to the lesser models.
