Cold weather creaks

Does anyone else have them coming from the rear center console? I got the seat belt buckle to stop hitting the B pillar now my ears are bleeding again.....




While I'm at it, anyone else have lots of carbon build up in and on the exhaust tips? There's so much, it looks like the carbon is actually dripping out the exhaust. I never noticed it on any of my X5s. Maybe it was always there but I can really see it now because the exhaust pipes are so massive?

Same here but not all the time. It happens when I go over a wide bump and such and only at the front suspension.. It sounds like the springs making sound while contracting..

Mine has tons of carbon build up. I need to polish my exhaust tips some time to see how long it takes to build up but it seems excessive.

I can't believe how much there is. It looks nasty. No one but me gets close enough to the tailpipes to see it, but still
