I agree with the other posts that say keep the pressure on the dealer. Where I live, there are plenty of bumpy roads, pot-holes, you name it - and I don't get any noticeable creaks or other noises - 4 months into ownership. I very much doubt that your roads in NH are anything like as poor as here. If your X is making such noises, then it is just plain wrong. I'm sure 99% of X5 owners would agree. I am completely satisfied with noise levels (or lack of) from the bodywork. If you are in any way unhappy, then either they fix it or replace the vehicle. Based on my experience, if they can't fix it, you have definitive proof that it is a lemon.

:xoutpost: and Good luck with your problems!!! I've owned my X for about 8 months now and really haven't had any noises, although I'm curious to know as to how much wind noise is too much, or how quiet the ride should be??? I guess I won't know unless I get a chance to be in another X5!!! I wish you get your problems resolved soon, so that you can get to enjoying the wonders of driving what I believe to be the car I should have been driving years ago,that's how pleasant and joyful this SAV really is!!!!

Thank you all for your imput. I picked up the car last week and went for a ride with the shop forman. he took me on the worst road that they had and we heard nothing. drove nack home 90 miles. they did fix the wind noise and ajusted the tailgate .but we still get a creaking nosie when we hit bumpy or uneven roads. the dealer told me that there is a break in period and the creaks should go away.... i will give it some time. the x5 is by far the best driving car i have ever driven. i love it and hope the creaks just go away....

I have never heard of a break in period for creaks and rattles, but if that's not some Down East inside joke, I hope it works out. I get a dull rattle if the sunroof shade is not completely shut or is retracted all the way back.

Where's the creaking noise coming from? Back or front? Inside or outside?

70k miles and no problems, ask the stealership for a different car. Get rid of the lemon ON TIME!

Don't tell me this!!! I pickup mine in 25 days and my schedule does NOT have any time for repairs within 6-7 weeks (and 4500 miles) after pickup. I refuse to take in all these negative waves. O-o-o-u-m-m-m-m.

Quick question, did you test drive it? Seems like these are items (if that obvious) you would have noticed right then.
