So sadly it hasn't fixed my issue and its really starting to drive me mental. I treated all the rubber on all 4 doors and around the boot lid but as the car rocks back and forth when braking and then accelerating its still bloody creaking.

So at a standstill I dropped all 4 windows and opened the doors slightly, moved back and forth slowly and can hear the creaking plain as day. It definitely sounds like its coming from inside the car as it cannot be heard from the outside. I tried moving the seats, dropping the rear seats, taking everything out the boot etc... At a complete loss 😭

A common problem with a lot of cars is the door rubbers start to make a sort of creaking noise as the car flexes just as you describe. Clean all the door rubbers thoroughly with water and allow to dry then treat them all with Gummi Pflege - something like this SONAX 03400000 Rubber Care https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B002MZZNU8/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_i_nmtqFb2G0K6CS

Also worth cleaning the window glass where it pushes up into the rubbers at the top of the door but chances are the above will solve it. I find I have to do my every six to twelve months to keep it all nice and quiet. 

 

 

I've ordered that and will give it a go, cheers!

Hi there, first time poster.

I've had my 65 reg IS300h for just over 2 years, its done 75k miles (24k of those done by me) and it seems to have developed this creaking noise. It seems to either be coming from the drivers door window or the passenger door window behind and happens when you first press the throttle or brake, its also far more prominent at lower speeds. It really does sound like a creaking floor board and its literally right by my right ear! If I lower both the windows it goes away and I swear it only started doing it during the really hot weather we've been having, so my guess is that as the car flexes the glass is moving around inside the rubber surrounds and causing the creaking noise.

Any advice on how I might go about trying to sort it?

Cheers.
