Default rattles, squeaks and chirping on '09 IS350

i've been hearing a lot of these noises by center console, transmission gate and arm rest area of my '09 IS350. i have 73500 miles on it. my warranty is still valid until this May. is it worth it to take to dealer for this issue? i mean it's difficult to duplicate the exact same noise since it changes every day and depend on the surface of the street the car is currently on.

I've had rattles coming from my the air conditioning vents on my 09. Apparently some brackets were broken so they installed new ones and even added some insulation. I did this when I still had the original warranty though. I don't think the extended covers stuff like that but it won't hurt to ask.

If you decide to take your car in, make sure to remove all your stuff from all the storage compartments.

I have been getting the centre console squeaks too. They're driving me nuts because I can't figure out where exactly they are coming from or how to stop them.

Also my doors have been squeaking a bit.
