My 2016 MBP 15" with TB randomly creaks, its quite hard to explain, basically sounds like the main casing makes a like noise much like an older traditional touchpad click sound but when no one is touching it and maybe only a few times a day.

It's odd... wondering if it's just my laptop? Is it maybe something to do with the body warming up from cold and expanding and creaking?

it's happening after intensive CPU usage? if so, it might be a heat sink
