You guys are giving me creeps.... Do I you know that I've spent almost 3 years sound-proofing my 05 Honda Odyssey, and one of the reasons I am getting an X5 is because I've lost that battle with Honda.... Ouch !

loose hatch

I had the same issue. It turns out the bolts had loosened up on the hatch and it was moving (the part that hatch attaches to). I brought the X5 in for service they tightened all of the bolts and the noise stopped. Hope this helps.

i think it gets kick started when the temp goes below zero. (Celsius). Doesn't bother me though.. maybe I don't have it..

Took the X in for service this week. I had them take a look and listen for the creeking. They pretty well tore apart my back hatch and put some felt tape on all the hard surface to surface trim. All the inside panels and the liftgate panels. Seems to be all gone now except for one squeak near the rear passenger seat. They did really take the time to remedy the situation.

Haven't as yet.. I usually move the headrest a small bit and it stops, or it stops if you rest your head against it... I plan to attack the rear hatch and the headrest next week to decreak / derattle them...

i have an annoying rattle which I think is the passenger sports seat but I'm not quite sure. The seats headrest can be extended forward and even when its pushed in the rattle is still there. It's really p!ssing me off.
