HELP: creaking noises inside Cabin

I'm having a problem with interior cabin noises. i can't figure out where the sounds are coming from, apparently everysides of cabin. makes creaking popping and cracking sounds, mostly when going over bumps, nomatter how bad the bumps are, even small bump would count. The driver and passenger side doors creak and even my seat creaks. knowing that it's nearly impossible for a car not to make any single noises but this is definitely more than sth, seriously.

i'm going to take the car to the dealer tmr morning, afraid techs will tell me it's normal after all.

did anyone have this problem in the past? any solution?

Welcome to BMW (and German cars in general). Rubber door seals are probably part of the cause, try treating them for starters.

At my local ACE Hardware store I actually found an automotive grease stick that's probably the best thing I have tried thus far. It says it's safe for rubber, and different from the Gummipflege you can just take it on your finger and smear it into every little corner of the rubber seal. Door seals have been quiet for months now, best $2 ever spent!

Wow, interesting. I use Gummi on mine every 1-2 months, which seems to keep things quiet. It's expensive though, so I might swing by Ace and see what they have.

I know how annoying it is, it happen on my E90 few months ago, dealer ordered and replaced the rain channel for me and resolve the problem. The black trim around the door they replaced for me.
