Hi. i have the most annoying rattling noise coming from my dash (not where the guages are, the top dash) from the driver side corner... i think. well, its really annoying. everytime i hit a bump, i hear a little creak. ITS DRIVIN ME NUTS! anyone have any experiences/solutions to getting rid of rattles? or should i just take it to the dealer? first i thought it was my euro dash i installed, but its not. i tried a couple things (wd-40 on the corners, foam tape) but it doesnt work. btw, its a 6th gen coupe. thanks.

My AV6 had a bunch of annoying creaks and rattles and even a dash rattle too. You're definitely not alone. I think interior rattles are one of the biggest complainst about our cars among other owners...






and thank GOD for that! :eek: ;)

Guess we all have our share of these... I have two annoying creaks/rattles. The first was easily identified since it came from the driver's side air vent. When the rattle starts, I just apply a little pressure around the vent and it goes away. I pulled out the coin holder and tightened the screws, but it's still there. So I was thinking of removing the plastic molding and applying a bead of silicon around the edge and then screwing it back in. I've had it for a while and it is intermittent. It also seems to show up more with cold temps. One of these days I'll fix it. The other is with the headliner by the rear window. This one rarely shows up, but when it does it sounds like something tapping against glass. A friend helped me identify the source. And of course it never appears at the dealer.:(

I have the exact same rattling noise coming from the driver dash. Everytime I drive I always hear it, but when I press down on the dash on top of the gauges it goes away. Next time I go to get my oil changed I'll have them fix it.

Its alive!!!

First of all you people with the cars that rattly when its cold but not when its hot a little science would probably suggest that because things expand in the head those parts that are rattling are probably just loose in the cold and when it heats up the move together and stop rattling. That is my guess. Also do any of you cars just randomly sound like the seats are moving when the car is off. I will be standing next to it and all of the sudden here a noice like something is moving probably the drivers seat.

i thought i was the only one! neway, ill see what i can do tomorrow, otherwise ill just live with it.. but i wonder how the dealer fixes a problem like this :confused:
the dealer sprayed some foamy stuff through a little straw into the crack that the rattling was coming from and it fixed mine. that was a couple months ago and the rattling hasnt come back yet.

When i went to the dealer the guy just used wd-40, it went away then came back on the drive home, i also notice that in the cold the noie is 10 times as bad. My dealership is mad far too, so i guess i just got to deal with it until my next visit.:mad:

Same problem here... it made a loud squeaking noise until I tightened the screws! :eek: :(

I have another problem... it sounds like squeaking coming from the passenger side, maybe the door panel. It's so annoying, and I can't figure out where it's coming from!
