No, this sound has nothing to do with the back door mount, but thank you for the useful video!

Here is an update from my side :)
After replacing the shock absorber, the cracking sound disappeared.
In my case, the rear shock absorbers were definitely the cause.

Hi,
In my case, on the right side, it was due to a body assembly issue. Two pieces of metal were touching. (this is literally what it is written on the papers from the service). Later, on left side I had a similar sound and they changed the shock absorber…

I think I didn’t get the best assembled one, but I started to cope with it. The most annoying part is the left wing mirror which is shaking after 100 km/h. But it seems, at least in Romania, that no one else complains about it and the dealership ignores me…

I had this same issue on the left rear on my 23 model.
The shock head was replaced and the noise was gone.
