I answered this at length, yesterday...maybe you saw it? I saw it, yesterday, but it's gone, now, for some reason.

Shortened version: My problem was at the door handle. Pushing on the panel at that point caused the noise to vanish, so I was able to trace it to the plastic pivoting junk at the handle, inside the car.
