I already adjusted the upper stops and the lower latches to make the gate close very tightly. So much so that the auto-close almost won't close the upper gate.

It's still there.

Any ideas of what I can do to make this go away? It's incredibly annoying on what is otherwise a fantastic vehicle.

I'm experiencing the same noise as well. I've tried everything, I'm down to removing the spare tire in hopes that may be the cause. I would like to hear if others are having the same issue and if so, how they corrected it.
