Since taking delivery I've tolerated a couple of annoying squeaks on the basis that they might disappear but they haven't so its going back to the dealer to try to get them sorted.

One high-pitched squeak seems to be at the right rear and is most noticeable when coasting down a bumpy road. The other is lower pitched and seems to be right-front. Both diminish when the power is on going up-hill. They both seem suspension-related because nothing inside the car or boot makes the noise when vibrated manually. However both disappeared when the boot was loaded with heavy IKEA flat-packs.

Update: the squeaks were due to two Aircon ducts rubbing together under the car. Sorted now and beautifully quiet!

Well, you know the answer to that then, don't you?
