Creaking in passenger side B pillar area

[coff33]

Anyone experience this issue? Its not that loud but its annoying. it sounds like a light 'tick tick tick' every time I go over a slightly rough road or bump on the passenger side. Once I notice it, all I hear is this, so its really annoying but I am having trouble narrowing down where its coming from and how to fix it.

It’s probably not coming from where you think. Mine has the same thing but it’s coming from the bit where the interior light is on the roof. Push that area in and it stops.

Sounds like the passenger the B pillar for the driver and the driver side B pillar for the passenger! Mine is booked in to get that amongst other things next Friday.

For me it is the passenger seatbelt tapping against the trim, only happens when belt has been left in a certain way.

Also check the rear seatbelt buckle to see if it's knocking against the hard plastic trim.

I have already checked seatbelts, I will see if its the light.. the other was this video i saw on youtube I think linked in this forum too about some vents under the glove box?

Yeah the vents are a common cause of vibration. Stick on felt around them, easy fix. After that glasses in the overhead compartment... More felt.

I have this - definitely the passenger B pillar as if you push and hold it the noise stops.

Been meaning to take the trim off and see if there's an obvious cause. It sounds like something is rubbing where it shouldn't.
