My first persistent and semi annoying buzzing / creak / rattle sound coming from the inside of the hatch. It's tough to guess exactly where it is, but it's definitely inside and in direct ear shot since it sounds very buzzy (exterior or things under the cargo cover would be more muffled). Thinking it's some of the boatload of cheap plastic trim around the window on the inside of the hatch rubbing at a connecting joint. Anyone else with this issue? I'm not keen to tearing off the panels to add some deadening material. I did remove one of the small covers (for brake lamp access) thinking it could be the cause and broke one of the plastic snaps, things are not real friendly to be removed in the interior of this car.
 
Ima noticing my first subdued creaks and cracks, nothing continuous just intermittent, and only really noticeable at very slow speeds. Mostly I hear them from the roof toward the RR. If/when I feel the need to track these "old age" manifesting noises, it will be to push on the headliner, the rocker panels, and lube the door seals, that sort of thing. There is no way that I will be pulling anything off the interior.
