Hi All,
Been having this issue since day one. 2016 V6. Took it in and the dealer couldn't find a problem because of course the noise wasn't there while at their service center. So now it's getting worse.
This only happens once the car has been sitting for some hours. There is this rubbing sound only out of the rear and only when I turn. Then after first 3 to 5 mins. driving it stops.
So my theory is maybe the shocks are defective and compress while sitting. Then as I drive they charge up from the bouncing. Idk.
Anyone have any idea what is going on?
Thanks!

16V6 - I have the same problem you do, though so far I have only noticed it while reversing. Occasionally I also notice a faint burnt rubber smell from the rear, usually after driving for a while. I am gonna check for possible brake line rubbing now. Sorry didn't mean to hijack your thread, but just wonder if we have the same problem..

16V6 - I also wonder if our rear-end noise is just some minor brake pad, or parking brake drag (or a sticking caliper). I had a BMW that would make awful brake pad noise after sitting for a few hours, just at initial take-off. I checked my brake lines on my EB and nothing is rubbing against the rear wheels. If I ever determine the cause of the noise on my car I'll let you know, as my symptoms are the same as yours.
