Default Loud, creaky leather seats

I've noticed that any movement in the driver's seat causes lots of noise. Is there a solution for this? This isn't a warranty claim right? Also my driver's seat looks kinda worn out....Like more than it should for 36k miles. There's even a crease in the leather where you would have your wallet in your right back pocket. Is that a warranty claim? Yes I'm hoping to get some free fixes haha. Bought the car used.

I'm a big guy (285lbs) and I have about 65k on my car. No creaking or really any visible wear in the seats.

I've had a similar problem. It was corrected by putting some self sticking velcro between the drivers seat and the center console. Any kind of material that prevents the seat from rubbing on the console works.

Thanks I'll try that. For my seat, it's on the door side.....The area between the left bolster and the hard plastic part.

I'm guessing the worn out leather isn't a warranty claim?
