Happens at parking lot speeds.
It’s not the door seals and it’s not the seats rubbing against the center console.

anyone familiar with this sound?

Did a ride along with a Tech today, it's coming from the B pillar, but unsure of what exactly. Appointment next week.

Interested, I can't tell if it is the same sound or not but something like this has started in mine as well.

What’s your VIN? I’m in the 25xxx range. Beast.

Mine happens when turning sometimes. But definitely happens on initial acceleration from a stop and deceleration. Parking lot speeds.

Tap the back of the front seats repeatedly. Something could be loose inside the seats

Not sure if this helps, but I noticed a creaking in my car that turned out to be loose bolts in the seat frame. Might be worth checking if you're comfortable poking around under there.

Happened to me back in May. VIN 25xx. Tech rode along for 3 mins, said he had it and quick fix. Hasn’t reappeared in 8k miles. I hesitate to offer specifics. I have owned a Tesla since vin 12xxx of original model S. Get on creaks early and often and within a short time you will not have to deal with it.

I may have found it. I’m still going to have the service center fix this though.

Service appointment tomorrow.
I started to have it on the drivers side, but was able to push a loose clip back into place at the lower b pillar trim and it seemed to have went away.
