Welcome aboard Upgradethishuman!

It’s a Diesel, the rattle is the engine noise!  :grin:

If you can avoid it at all don’t let anyone take the dashboard apart! You’ll end up with more rattles than ever.
Have you tried taking off the panel under the dash above the foot pedals? A flat metal panel that’s attached by torx screw. With this removed you can reach up quite a way beneath the dash and wiggle things or even wrap them up in anti-rattle products.

There’s also the option of turning down the volume of the Soundaktor (without unplugging it) with VCDS or OBD11 which might help get rid of the offending noise whilst still keeping the offensive soundaktor noise albeit at a more tolerable level.
