Rattle behind or around glovebox...

Post by Mr.D »

I've searched the forums for info on my rattle and haven't found much on rattles around the glove box. When I first got mine I could get the rattle to go away with just a little fiddling with the latch, but that quit working. I could then make it go away by leaving the glovebox open but now that doesn't work either. The rattle doesn't seem to be RPM specific, it's pretty constant. Any ideas?

I have a buzzing sound around the glove box area, but only at 50-60 mph. Still looking for the source.

I tightened the philop's screws inside the glovebox near the latch mechanism, a couple were very loose. It helped a bunch, I still get a bit of rattle but it's no longer constant. I also removed the glovebox and looked for possible causes back there but didn't find anything, also cleaned out my cabin filter at the same time. I'm still looking to completely solve it, I'll post here if I find anything else. Let me know if and how you solve your noise.
