I am experiencing multiple rear noise as well. Not sure if it sound like creaking noise.Sent to the dealer twice.
First time.
-changed the rubber holding the exhaust to the chassis.
(Good for ~10km then same sound happens again)
Second time
-Tighten/modify the heat shield.
-Readjust the tailgate rubber
-Tighten licence plate.
(Very Good/complete silent for ~150km then one of the noise occur again. This noise is very noticeable when the rear wheels depart from a speed bumps at low speed.)
Dealer readjusting the tailgate rubber(it stick out like fangs from the tailgate when you open the tailgate) did help eliminate the rattling noise when in low rev and reverse gear.Frankly I tighten this rubber couple weeks back as i though it suppose to be completely in. Obviously i was wrong.(this noise is now solved)
As for the heat shield, they said it was the heat shield hitting the exhaust pipe so they tighten and/or did some modification to the heat shield. Not sure exactly which location its hitting.
I am assuming the mod heating shield came loose again after a trip, because the modification help eliminate the noise for quite a long distance.
Will send it back to dealer see what they will do and keep you posted.
One last noise advise. Whenever the passenger seatbelt is used, it usually get caught on between the seat and the side(plastic) after unbuckled, which cause little noise.
