Is it involving the rear window? If so. I had a horrible buzz at speed on the interstate and it was a small pebble interposed between the rear window and the rubber seal at the base of the window near the rear hatch. It drove me insane until I found it.

yeah, I got the same exact thing. It does not seem like B-pillar. More like rear side window or just below it. I can't fit a human into the back seat to look for it!

ato911 is infamous around these parts
I also had a rattling/squeaking sound coming from the rear passenger side and it sounded like the rear window or something was loose. Took it to the dealer and they found that the rattling came from the sunroof. So, they insulated the sunroof headliner and sunroof headliner frame. The squeaking sound is gone now.
