Hey, I have an annoying dash rattle coming from drivers side vent/ pillar area. It sounds like plastic pieces rattling inside the vent /dash. I have read the threads about the plastic door trim pieces but im convinced its not this, more inside the dash/ vent. Has anyone experienced this? Let me know. I dont really want to tear the dash apart at this point, thanks

I have this rattle right now. Going to pop off that top left dash piece and see if I can get to the bottom of it soon.

Sounds crazy but I bet it’s the engine splash guards in the wheel well! I had the same rattle, it did sound like it was from the A pillar at times, took them off put 2 layers is electrical tape over the mounting hole cut an X and reinstalled the splash guards, problem solved!

When I am experiencing the rattle and press on the dash in the top left the rattle goes away, which leads me to believe it is localized to the dash. Will take a look at this regardless. Thanks.

I have a few rattles that come and go depending on temperature. The JBL speaker rattle, an A pillar rattle, and a rattle below the infotainment screen. They were more prevalent in the summer minus the JBL speaker, when they come back I plan to take it in because I am tired of chasing them.

Taking mine in this Monday. Been chasing a rattle that’s coming from the area where the a pillar, driver ac vent and door is. Tried everything from foaming the secret cubby, padding behind the triangle on the driver door, padding underneath the driver side dash tweeter and a pillar. It’s driving nuts because it only happens on the cold when going over bumps.

Did you check the splash guards as suggested by earlier comments?

I still have a rattle coming from inside driver door. Goes away when add pressure while driving. Have had it to dealer 2 times already. Only happens when it’s above 75 degrees out….

Mine has the same rattle. Tried everything to fix it. Still can’t track it down. Very annoying

Interesting. My rattle is the inverse. Only happens when it’s cold out. I’ve taken off the door panel, dropped the aux panel, taken apart the panel on the secret cubby area, removed the driver door speaker. This is on top of all the other areas a mentioned earlier to include the driver engine splash guard. The noise still seems to be coming from either the corner right beneath the A pillar or from the door itself but it’s hard to tell due to where it’s coming from in the corner. Hell, I’ve even removed the rubber wind guard that’s inside the driver side fender area.

I’ve done all the same things. Even tapped a bunch of connectors that seemed a little loose under by the OBD port area. No luck

it’s a MFer to reinstall. I did it once and removed it again because I thought it was that. Now I’m leaving it off. F it
