Are the seat backs touching the back of the cabin? Depending on how far back you've set the seats and the the rake of the seat back.

Failing that, I understand Codliver Oil capsules are good for squeaks. If anything is rattling though, you might want to visit your doctor...

My seatbelt used to squeak even after adjusting the seat to not be all the way back. Took about 4-5 months for it to go away, but these days no more seatbelt squeaks.

Turn the radio on.
My 996 Turbo rattled a bit. After chasing I gave up and just got used to it.

Default rattle

Removed the trim piece at the edge of the passenger door and one of the orange clips was broken and the etiology of the rattle. My speaker "hole" has been removed behind the passenger seat. Otherwise seems ok now

The rear deck assembly on this car is dreadful ...the plastic trim that holds the hinge points for the rear deck right behind the rear bulk head are flimsy and rattle. The rear deck moves a bit causing creaking ... It's just bad....and stupid because it ruins an otherwise brilliant car....
