Here is something a buddy of mine found:

TSB-05-42A-005 Released March 2005 (titled: Winshield creaking noise
while
driving)

1 Test drive to verify noise is coming from A pillar area
2 use a soft trim stick to remove the side windshield moulding from the
cowl
trim - do not remove the cowl trim for this procedure
3 obtain adhesive-backed thin felt material from BSR kit (MR991752) Cut
six
felt pieces, approx 70 mm x 5 mm
4 Remove the liner from the back of the felt pieces. Affix the felt on
the
inner clips. Affix one felt piece to each of the three inner clips
Repear on
the other side.
5 Be sure that the outer moulding clips (four on each side) are
securely
attached to the body retension stud. IF the clips are not properly
attached,
noise may result
6 Reinstall the windshield side moulding
7 test drive to verify the noise is eliminated.

Anyone heading to a dealer anytime soon? I wonder if the dealers know about this.

My buddy had this same problem with his MR. There is a whole thread discussing it on evom. I think SRM fixed it for him, after like the 3rd attempt, hehe.
