If it happens only in hot weather and sounds like rubber/plastic
creaking sound when car is slowly driven on uneven road (causing
body flex) and speed bump, I bet it's caused by body flex and rubber
door seal rubbing against the door or the B pillar plastic cover
creaking caused by stress. It happened some of the 405s I own, only
happens in very hot day 70+F. Try leaving all the doors half closed
and see. I thought about dressing the door seal with some oil or
armor all but never got around to do it.
