Here a squeaking noise I had in my class C at 17000 miles that made me crazy till I found it, where they cut the roof of the cab out, (the haft round) they riveted the medal to the wood (not good) the rivets came loose and the medal would rub on the wood going down the road. I pulled out the head liner and installed about 30 self-tapping lath screws #8 1/2" Problem solved 60,000 miles later still good.
My 09 Cambria had the tv mounted in that area, I had that squeak. Actually two squeaks. They epoxied or glued metal brackets to the roof cutout area then fastened the nose cone to that. well over time they came loose. I used a very strong product that cured that, well then there was another one. They had speakers on both sides of the TV mounted in a wood frame. After a application of wood glue and a few extra screws the squeak was gone.
That tapping sound you hear my dear? well the strap that you pull the awning down with would do that. Even as obvious as it was it stumped me for awhile.
Best hint I learned was using towels in-between pots and pans etc. Once I had my new stereo system installed i hardly noticed any of those squeals.
