Unidentified Noise - Please Help!
Hoping that someone on this thread might be able to assist with this. I have a 2021 E53 AMG. 12k mi. Still under warranty. There is a squeaking noise coming from the wheels or undercarriage that occurs intermittently, but frequently. Most frequently hear it when going straight at 20-35 mph. The noise is not constant but it happens every day at multiple different locations (newly resurfaced streets, older streets, etc.). Link to video is below.
Several visits to MB dealer that have all resulted in "unable to replicate". They checked brakes and said they were fine. Sound ceases immediately when brake is applied. Taking it back in to the dealer again next week and hoping that I can give them some sort of lead as to likely cause given that they have thus far been unable to identify.
This is driving me crazy. Any ideas or thoughts would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I had this exact issue on a family member's E 450 coupe.

Check the brake caliper bolts are torqued to specs. You indicated dealer checked the brakes .. what exactly did they do to the brakes ?
my front bolts were not tightened to spec at factory at all.
