THe cluster area may be the bezel from your heads up display thats a relatively easy fix just wedge foam/tape in there and it makes it tigher and it should go away. THe dash nav/non nav screen tends to flex and bind making a creak sound. Mine does not do it but I have read a ton of people on here complaining about it.

I haven't noticed that, let me try it and let you know the results.

Do you think is necessary to remove cluster? If so how can i do it?

Thanks a lot again! Have a nice day
