I will start off by saying that I know this topic has been covered and I've read through everything I could find by searching. However, with that said and all the fixes applied, I still have a rattle in my dash. It seems to be on the passenger side, almost behind the glove box. I've had most of the interior apart and have applied foam in all of the usual places such as behind the hvac controls and the customizable buttons but the rattle hasn't gone away. I would like to dig deeper and go behind the glove box but can't seem to figure out how to remove it, can anyone give me some tips on removing the glove box? Is anyone else having this rattle? Is it just me?

Found it, have no idea how to get to it but it’s the metal thing that rolls to assist the glove box opening and closing. It’s super loose and I’m certain it’s this

Video isn't the best but I get this high pitched vibration at exactly 3k rpm. Installed AWE track exhaust and didn't get the vibration until a week or two later after a track day. Really sounds like it's the crossbar but not sure. But definitely sounds like it's on the inside and not something outside.

Not sure how lucky I got but after 3,000km I still have zero rattles.. not even any related to the sound subwoofers. ?‍

I had the exact same issue, I did a lot of work to get it to stop. I’ll take pics tomorrow to help explain what I did to stop it.

The only creaks I have are near small side windows at the plastic trim. Any recommended fixes?

Creaking is pretty much impossible to fix, you can add weather proof sealing along the edges of the pieces that are creaking but that’s it. All cars creak especially going over rough or uneven road conditions, however when it comes to rattles and vibrations there are definitely things you can do to fix it

So these are the two panels you need to remove. You need to add Dyna mat to the metal on the bottom part and around where the metal clips snap in. On the top part you need to take all the little pink plastic clips and add electrical tape around where they slide into the plastic to prevent them from moving around loosely.

These are the two panels in question ^

Do you have a picture of this? I haven’t driven my car a lot lately and am still trying to figure this issue out.

I posted some pictures of the areas that need addressed but I am too scared to pull it back apart to show exactly what I did because im scared it will come back ?
