2020 G63 Window Rattle
My 2020 G63 driver's side window has an issue where some sort of creaking/rubbing noise occurs when driving the car over bumpy roads or 55mph+. Sometimes, the noise is a squeaky rubbing sound and other times, it's like there is air coming between the window seal. Happened when I drove it home for the first time with 18 miles and hasn't gone away.

If anyone else has had this problem, could you tell me what your dealer did to fix it from the service paperwork? Really want to get the windows tinted, but want to get the car serviced before I think about tinting so the dealer does not blame the noise on "improper tint installation" like they did with previous cars I had...

Ugh turns out the clicking/creaking is from when the drivers side bolster inflates on the left side. I have dynamic seats turned to level 2, so when the chamber inflates or deflates, the leather rubs against the plastic making a weird clicking and creaking sound. Doesn't happen on the passenger seat...

Strange. Maybe you can put something over the area that is rubbing?

I hate squeaks. Maybe a small piece of Moleskin in the right spot?

Almost same for me but after viewing that video, I gave a punch in the latching area on the back of the seat and, so far, no noise...

Has it gotten better with time? I was thinking maybe the noise is from the leather breaking in and maybe putting some felt, but my goodness, the noise is so annoying.
