I take it it's only when the car is moving? When I stripped the seats out of my old 320 there was a loud noise coming from the rear, which I only noticed when I was driving. But then when I stopped I realised it was the fuel pump whirring away.

You could try letting the wife/partner/g/f ride in the front seat instead of in the boot.....
