Do you guys hear ticking sound on Pillar B? What is going on?? I found the sounds came from the black plastic piece from the seatbelt..

Has anyone gone to the dealers to resolve this?

Same problem. I do not thinck is coming from the door seal. It looks to be originated by the black plastic part including the little roller to let the belt up and down. If you push on it: it stops. There is a little srew may try to lock it?

Heard this noise on the first E60 I test drove and my first 530d. My current E60 doesn't do it

I heard it for the first time about a week ago. I think it's the seat belt mechanism as well. If i stick my finger in there the noise goes away.

These rattling noises are so annoying..... there are multiple spots in my car that rattle. One main one is from the A pillar I am still not able to locate it nor could the dealer... Sux..
