I've just bought a 2012 Nissan Qashqai Ntec + 1.6 Petrol. I'm over the moon with the car!

However, I recently heard clicking when getting in and out, off and on the drivers seat.

I investigated below and noticed that the foam seat bolster has torn (looks like rubbing on metal frame) and has now more or less collapsed giving no support.

Is this likely to be replaced under warranty and has anyone else had this issue?

First off, how many miles has the car done, as this may affect what Nissan may say? But to be honest at the most you may get a good will offer, but my money's on you getting nothing.

As Daewar has mentioned it is highly unlikely that you will get this seat exchanged under Guarantee as it is over the 3 year period, but it might be worth a try. As your QQ appears to be the J10 model give this place a try for example - Dave ;)
