Rear Hatch Creaking Solution!
 
I have found a solution to the rear hatch creaking. Everytime I pull up to the drive way, evertime I pull into a parking lot the rear hatch creaks. This is the solution. I bought a big sheet of felt from McMaster (http://www.mcmaster.com/nav/enter.as...pe=&catnum=112)
I cut it into 3/4" strips and lined the entire hatch with it (the part of the hatch that contacts the rubber seals on the body). Now the rubber seals contacts the felt and is no longer rubbing against the hatch which I think is causing the creaking, So far, no creaks. Wohoo! I'll post pics later when I have time.
