when i press to the bottom of the macbook pro there are very annoying sounds inside of it. also there are the same sound when moving the lid, and even when i moving the mac itself. had anyone the same issue? or some ideas what could be wrong here? i tried blowing out the hinges with compressed air, but this made the sound even worse

Not sure I heard all the sounds, but it just sounds like a hinge that could use some lubrication to me.

don t think it’s a matter of lubrication, because the same sound appears not only near the hinge

Unless you want to take the back off and look inside (or have someone else do it), the easiest thing to try might be to just tighten the screws. Will need a pentalobe screwdriver, P5. But use a light touch.
