Rattle from overhead console

hjonkman · 02-02-2007, 08:17 AM

Just a question; does anybody experienced some rattles from the overhead console? Basically I have this rattle all the time, but it is gone if I press the plastic cover. It's not so loud, but annoying at times and it won't go away.

I am just curious if anybody recognizes this and had an easy fix. Please let me know! Thanks,

Hendrik

felt tape my friend, which console are you talking about? the front or the back? the back one is easily removable by prying on the side that's facing the rear of the car, and you can apply some felt tape on the cover, that should get rid of the noise

Thanks for the quick feedback. It is actually on both, but the front is the most annoying...

Next action is of course to remove them and put some tape in/on it. So you say it's easy to get off? Also the front one?
