No solution yet. Can't raise the seat high enough to get underneath nor take a pic. It's definitely not a bolster issue, nor the seat frame's attachment to the rails. These are solid. It's something within the seat bottom cushion. Using the diagrams on RealOem I think it's this piece. X marks the spot of where I feel the play. I'm not sure how to take this apart in order to identify the cause, and not too keen to take it to the dealer for them just to tell me it's normal and charge me an arm and a leg for the privilege. 😃

Makes sense. Based on this diagram, I think my issue is coming from #6 (spring support) Something might be loose either within the spring support itself (the black part) or in the way the spring support attaches to the frame. I'm not sure how to remove the seat cushion, however, so I can see what the issue is. Any ideas? Tried to find a YT vid but all seam to be about swapping the entire seat, not just removing the seat cushion.

The number 6 is a spring and in my opinion that is not the problem because, at least in my case, the noise is dry and full and cannot come from such a thin spring. I believe that the problem is to be found in the joints (green areas) that have not been tightened or pressed sufficiently. I have some TIS files on how to disassemble the various parts of the seat if you are interested.
