Hmmm.........I have a 2013 550, but I know that I've had the motor mounts replaced as part of owning it - I brought it in for crappy ride quality and this fixed it.
Moonroof creaking (mine was and they fixed it)? Seat creaking (mine is and will address when I bring in for annual service)? Check anything that can leak (motor, trans, diff, suspension) and see if there's any signs of something giving out.

Check the MB-tex for rips and working seat heaters. Even the passenger heater has been known to go out. You mind as well take it in and have them scan it for any outstanding codes while it's in there.

I had multiple items replaced before my warranty expired.
I had my blower fan replaced at 36k and 3 years because it was making squeaking noise in very cold weather.
Flickering backup camera - new camera and harness(took 3 visits) and they found loose pins on the connector.
Faded Wood Trim - New set
Rip in MbTex - New drivers seat bottom cover
Random static noise from center speaker - 3 visits and finally replaced with new speaker and plastic grille because they broke mine. This was about 3 weeks after my warranty expired but I brought it in when it making the noise and they still fixed it because it was in multiple times while still under warranty.
Corroding center caps - 4 new caps.
I had my vehicle 3 times at the dealership within the last month of warranty and each time they did their worthless multipoint inspection and it came back clean. I paid a MB Indy shop to go over my car and look for any issues and they found a small leak around the thermostat. This was 1 day before my warranty expired and they replaced the thermostat, gaskets , coolant etc.

I swear I'm --> <-- this close to choking someone out if they "can't replicate" a noise or they say "this is normal"
