Took the dash apart and put a couple of foam pieces i had laying around in and back together and it’s all silent again!

I love the interior of this car though, every time I pick up non-car enthusiast people they all go “Wow this is such a nice car” which never happens with anything else I’ve ever owned. Everything is very satisfying to use on it… the only thing I dislike are the button blanks (I got over it) and that the screen isn’t a touch interface.
I missed your message. I would almost say not having a touch screen is a blessing, as the fingerprints on the inlaw's X1 touch screen drives me nuts. And the new BMW interface HAS to be operated as a touchscreen and I hate it.

As for the creaky MB interiors, it seems to be most isolated to that generation of cars. The subsequent redesign seems to have mostly solved them.
