rattles and creaks o la la ! (Sorted)

hello world my humble vehicle has started to make an excellent noise coming from the boot,i guess its most likely the plastics on the hatch itself since when i touch them they make an amazingly cheap sound that puts the low quality plastics of a matiz to shame.....any ideas? thoughts?solutions?(besides changing the plastics altogether
Ofc as we all know only one thing is better than one rattle,two! my armrest whenever i put my elbow on it in a hard manner creaks i have put felt pads on it (enough to cover every tine part of it)but without any succes...when i touch the rear part of it (the plastic makes a weird sound-checked on a mates f30 and his doesnt do that) any ideas for this too? besides changing the armrest and the armrest-fitting-thing.Thank you all in advance and may god keep your cars rattle-free

You mean ARThur?

In the boot, if it's really plastics themselves just rip them off. If it's the fixing clips that went loose it should be sufficient to replace just them.

Regarding the armrest. Since sliding it to the other position shouldn't help and keeping your lead elbow off isn't an option, lift it up then and stuff those felt pads into the storage compartment to put your elbow on them rather than the tired armrest.

Changed the armrest and put tape around the hook of the boot like on any cheap banger
