I had an issue with my F32 creaking when the passenger door was opened or moved on the hinges.
It was not the door rubber seals creaking. It was to do with the seal for the door mirror mount. Where the door mirror is mounted, it is mounted on a rubber seal. If the seal is not perfectly seated the bottom of the mirror plastic rubs against the plastic door trim. It was only a tiny area rubbing but plastic on plastic creaks.
I tried to re-seat the mirror on the seal but the seal was slightly creased from not being correctly mounted. So I used a tiny piece of foam tape just on the area that was rubbing and remounted the mirror.
The creak is now gone.
