Hello, I also happened to me but something less than you, I solved with silicone spray, it is like oil but not stain.

Sprayed by the entire board of the union of the plastic skin.

It seems that even the plastic surround on the bottom of the seat also makes a creaky sound . Unsure how to proceed with that.

I had this problem with both front seats while my car was under warranty. It's not the leather it's the plastic trim flexing that's making the noise. BMW took off the plastic trim on the side of the seat base applied 3M double sided tape and reattached. Been a lot better since...

I believe that BMW had in its catalog of products.
