Front seats (leather non sport seats) on our 08 e60 make this odd "slight popping" noise when you suddenly lean forward. The noise is similier to bubble wrap popping. Noise emits from the backside where your lower back rests against the seat. I've mentioned this to the dealership and they indicated this to be normal... any thoughts? is this normal? anyone else experiance this?

note: both seats in the front have this issue.

I have the sport seats and my driver side makes a popping noise when I lean forward. Sounds like a metal spring popping in an old mattress.
