But as things typically go, it returned to its full creaking symphony which occurs when accelerating or braking and with body flex. The slower I accelerate the more pronounced the creak is because it is more drawn out. They supposedly fixed some bad welds? But i think maybe they just used some duct tape on the panels as it didn't hold up. I have another appointment in a couple weeks. Hopefully it'll get fixed permanently and within no more than a few days...

Best of luck for all those out there with this issue. I posted my service invoice on my thread regarding this issue if anyone is interested.
Does your car have shadowline trim? If had a lot of interior creaks in my g01 that is was convinced of that they were coming from plastic trim in the interior. I spent a lot of time trying to silence it with no succes. After further investigation I realized that the shadowline trim also is a source of cabin noise from places were the trim is in contact with rubber seals or different pieces of shadowline trim. I gave the rubbers some gummipflege treatment combined with a silicone spray tour. My car has been silent for 2 days
I hope now it stays like this...
