My 2011 GT is making a slight rattling noise when I go over bumps. The noise seems to be coming from my right and a bit in front of me from my position in the driver's seat. I checked the compartment behind the cupholders to see if I had loose items but there were none. Has anyone else experienced this? I think it's a minor annoyance. It doesn't sound like anything too serious.

 

i remember when that kind of stuff used to be bug me back when i came from an audi. never really cared since...

 

I've had a few myself. My culprits were the chrome colored bezzles covering the speedometer and tach. I used some 5 minute epoxy and slipped a very small amount behind them with a toothpick. I then applied a small amount of pressure until dry. Problem cured.

 

Very nice solution, how did you figure that out?

 

I'm ocd when it comes to rattles on a new vehicle. I had one on my 2010 Toyota tundra crewmax that ended up getting ugly with the dealer due to them saying it was fixed 3x. I figured out the problem and fixed it myself. I assumed this wouldn't be much different. I didn't want the dealer having my car for God knows how long for something they couldn't figure out themselves. It took me a few weeks to actually nail this one down because I thought it was initially a dash rattle. Once I found it (just by pressing on the bezzle) and it stopped. I was pretty happy and figured out the easy fix.
