Wrap some tape around the metal hooks that the seats latch onto when folded down. The clips inside the seats seem to get loosened and the tape will make it fit more snug and resolved my rattled. I even had the service team check it out and see if there was an official fix but they simply wrapped black tape around it. 
Found the issue! for me it was the camera on the exterior, pretty easy fix.
open front and rear doors.
lift up the small rubber cover on the bottom of the camera glass cover and release 2 screws.
the camera is attached with 1 screw, open it and release the camera.
put small piece of felt on the bottom tongue.
issue gone!
This car feels like it's coming from ikea factory with all of the self repairs i had to do till now with more to come.
Quick update - Tesla tried a 4th time to fix it. Failed. I refused to take the car back from the service center.
I'm pursuing lemon law in the state of Florida.
Will report back as the process unfolds.

Did you try any of the suggestions in this thread? I know you probably don't feel like you need to given the price of the car, but if you want to fix the problem, you should try it. I don't know the lemon law specifically in FL, but I don't think you'll get far for a non safety issue and something that won't be perceived as not "working", such as a rattle.
I'm not doing a self tear down of a $140k car.
My attorney thinks I have a good shot given that I'm in Florida and you can lemon law for issues that "impair the value" of the car. I can assure you that If you rode in my car... I wouldn't be able to sell it to you.

Well, I took the speaker grill off of my $140k car and fixed a rattle. Took a literal 3 minutes and problem solved.
Seems less painful thing to try this than all the lawyer mess. Don't get me wrong, I can't stand rattles.... it took me a week to figure out what was rattling. But now it's fixed, I'm happy.

I had a clicking noise when turning the yoke/steering wheel, Tesla fixed it
For what its worth, as a datapoint, our 2023 MX LR (delivery on October 8th), has literally zero noises, rattling, crackling. I was simply amazed by how tight it is. They must have done a stellar job putting mine together. Coming from MX 75D 2018, its like its built on a different planet, unreal. It truly feels like a high end BMW/Audi in terms of interior quality, noise and tightness
My 2023 is good. It has a couple of little gaps and a misaligned door that I’m going to ask them to fix at a service appointment coming up to replace the badly scratches b pillar glass. As far as noises - I think it’s good. Less than 300 miles though.
in my experience, when you take it to service centers they tend to fix one problem... but you end up with another
What did the steering wheel creaking turn out to be? Mine is doing it with 200 miles on it
are you sure thats the source? i thought i had a rattle coming from here... but ended up being the yoke scroll wheels jingling
I have a video of the noise. New to the group, not sure how to if I can post it here
Just an update. About a week after I posted this, the noise returned. It turned out to be the lower FWD door panel on the rear corner that sits next to the bottom of the wheel well. When I nudged it with my fingers, it clicked loudly back and fourth over the metal of the door. Not sure about a permanent fix, but a quick spray of Vinylex completely killed the noise and it hasn't been back yet. If it comes back, I'll need to take the panel of and either used foam tape or silicon grease.
Both my front side marker cameras were rattling like crazy. Tesla declined to fix it because they said my PPF installer bent the plastic tabs. I suppose it's actually possible. I removed the wheel well covers, and released the cameras with the tabs and then built about 1mm of height with jb weld and reinstalled the cameras. Now a tight fit.
