Macbook 2017 popping noise

Hi, my macbook 2017 15 inch still has a popping noise after I took it into Apple for repair and the hinge still cracks sometimes when I open my screen. Apple replaced the bottom and the battery, and although there is still less cracking and popping it does still occur. I just wanted to ask what I should do and how do I get Apple to resolve this problem as I paid a lot for this.


Thank-you

You can only go back to the Apple store where the work was done. However, I have seen this matter arise several times.


I think it is due to the thin Aluminium case which expands and contracts with changes of temperature. The hinge is probably steel and so that would expand and contract at different rates. If my theory is correct, it will have little or no effect on the machine itself.
