Title: rattly dash board
Post by: 1.8Tgolf_Chris on 15 November 2014, 12:11

 :sad: Have a random rattle/ knocking vibration coming from directly underneath the top of the dash if i literally press down on it while driving on any bumpy road the sound goes completely,  iv tryed tightening the bolts up either side of the dash it kinda stopped for abit but then came back, dunno how else to stop it, it does sound like a knackered lower arm so its really annoying, but its definitely the dash
Anyone got an idea?

I had a noise for ages , convinced it was in the dash area , turned out that as my door had dropped slightly that was causing a clicking noise. Adjusted the striker about 1mm higher and it cured it.
