E55 Squeaks in Surround Sound

Just bot a 2006 E55 w/60k miles. Don't know how I missed this during test drives but the car has so many squeaks I don't know where to start to try to silence them. Is this normal for this car?

If your car has Pano roof, it squeaks. The entire car flexes over bumps and going up driveways...

If the roof is squeaking, mine did, the dealer lubricated and did some other work to it under warranty. No squeaks from the roof since.

I do have the pano roof, although I hear nothing from the roof. Most of it sounds like it's coming from the seats, door panels and center console.

This thread may help. In addition, PM your email address and I will send two DTBs showing repair procedures for the console and other noise sources. Include VIN if you want a copy of your vehicle’s MB datacard listing initial delivery date, factory-installed equipment & codes, etc.

I tried to perform the headrest removal from the linked thread, but it wont budge. Does the seat have to be reclined to a certain place?

Move seat to a position that allows you to smack the head restraint free.
