You checked the rubber seals around the doors? When they start getting dry they make that noise.
One way you can check is by pressing against the seals from outside the car and see if you can reproduce the sound.
If that's the case, lube it up with some silicon spray.

I am also experiencing the same issue. I belive it is an ABS sensor bad at one of the wheels.
A year ago I had a similar issue and dropped the vehicle in to the dealership and they replaced the sensor.
Odd it has reoccured in my case in such a short time. Vehicle 4.5 yr old Skoda Yeti.
