Have been having the same problem on and off, especially with acceleration/deceleration and moving side to side in the seat.

I've localized the source to the metallic band that holds the seat cover down to the seat on the right side near the front. The creak goes away when I apply pressure on it.

My solution (may be only temporary) was to spray some WD-40 for lubrication under the metallic band. Had to do that several times, and it seems to have cured it for now. *fingers crossed*
