Creaks, Rattles, and Squeaks

[thegreatest125]

Hello, I have an 08 CX-7 GT that I picked up back in February of this year. Since I got it I've noticed a squeak (almost like a chirp) whenever I go over bumps or rough areas of the road that sounds like it is coming from the center console area. More recently, from time to time at highway speeds i'm noticing a rattle that sounds like its coming from the driver door or somewhere in that area.

I know there are a handful of interesting noises that are common. Has anybody experienced these. And if so, do you know the cause/solution?

i've started to notice some groans in ours. i get a buzzing at the top of the center console, below the clock. normally a quick smack takes care of it.

The center console one is just the noise that the fake "metal" trim makes. Insert a thin screwdriver in between this trim and the console (on the side), pull it up a little and push back in. Cures the thing for about a month. The one in the door is most likely a loose nut, some people complained about it, but I'm too lazy to go in. Maybe next summer.
