Noices form the trunk seem very common. The dealer ordered some modification for the plastic parts in the trunk door. He also ordered 4 new modified door-rubbers.
Just wait and see.

If finally found the solution for my cracking noice from the trunk door
The glass door -which can be lifted separately - is fixed with a small black steel hook which goes in the trunkdoor (lock). Now wind some duct tape around this hook and the glass section is fixed much tighter in the lock.
Test: if you can push the glass section for some millimeters downwards voila; if this doesn't apply for your car you could fix as some prevention.

Hello again M!
That fix sounds very similar to the one used on the rattling hatch of the Mini.
Not a week goes by that I don't think about buying another.
You still enjoying yours?
