Squeaky Drivers Side Recaro

So I have noticed my drivers side Recaro likes to squeak. It normally happens in the morning, but I'm in SoCal, so a cool morning is something like 70?f. I have the seats pretty much all the way down and all the way back as I'm a big guy at 6'4". I noticed I can usually fix the problem temporary by lifting the seat up a little then dropping it back down. What I'm thinking the problem might be: the left side of the drivers seat will get raised slightly more than the right and then it will squeak until I correct it by raising and lowering the seat.

Has anyone else had this problem or know of a fix? I was thinking I'd go through and tighten everything on the seat base, or perhaps it needs to be re-greased. I bought the car after it had been sitting on the lot for a while so I know there will be a few issues from no use, but if this is something I can fix myself I'd rather not take it in. Anyone have any thoughts?

I had this same problem for a couple hundred miles. Then the problem went away for no apparent reason. Give it time.

Its really not that bad, but if it just went away for you then I can deal with it for a while I suppose.
