Another Noise Fixed
Waited to make sure I had actually fixed this, and I have indeed. I have a 2018 GT Edition 50 I recently purchased and had what I would describe as a creaking / popping noise right behind my head. It seemed to be affected by temperature and was near constant over roads that were not perfect. Occasionally it would seem to fade away the longer I drove the car, but that was rare.
If you go outside your car and push in on the small quarter window, especially along the bottom where the body and rubber seal meet you will most like get creaking / popping noise. I took DuPont silicone spray and lightly sprayed all along that seam and the side seams. Pressing on the window now produces no sound at all. This one fix has solved 80% of the noises I had in the car. Hope this helps someone else!

My car makes this same noise. I have the dealership lubricate the window every time the car is in for service. Its a temporary fix though, the sound always gradually returns after a few months. Curious to see how long this holds up! Would love an easy and cheap at home fix.
