That Load Creaking Sound

2020 CX-5 Signature Azul Metalico
In some of my first posts here after taking delivery of my Signature I complained about a load creaking noise that seemed to come from my seat back as my weight shifted while climbing the curving mountain road I take to get home. The car has 7600 kilometers on it now and I realized the other day the creaking is gone. Must have been something that had to wear in. A great relief because it was most annoying.
 
This may sound silly...I had something similar. Came out of the blue. I realized it was because I wore a leather coat that day. The squeaks were leather-on-leather. The acoustics made it impossible to tell where the sound was coming from. I could have sworn it was coming from the infotainment screen rubbing in its mount. It went away when I took off the coat.

(Maybe I should have typed "I have a friend who...")
 
My new RAV4 has a weird issue like that. When it was brand spanking new the passenger seat had a slight rattle noise to it. It went away after it was sat in a few times.
