Tried the Simoniz thing yesterday. Might be speaking too soon but I think it may just have helped with the noise at the windows. Many thanks.

Took your advice and sprayed more WD40 under the bonnet, and even more on windscreen hinges. Sshhhh! Don't want to tempt fate but that particular noise has been absent for the last few days! Hoorahh! Many thanks.

It is four months old.

I wish I could meet that someone working on the production line! Their carelessness is driving me over the edge! Thanks for your tips.

Thanks so much for your advice. I just keep thinking that this should not be happening with a brand new car. Never experienced such problems with previous two fabias.

I am laughing as I have tried everything that you mention above and have almost been at the point of just getting out of the car, abandoning it, and walking home Sadly I have also tried WD40 but only on and around the wiper mechanisms. Will try other areas now to see if this makes any difference. Surely a new car should not bring so much grief!!

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately this noise is really noticable and sadly I am not confident about removing anything to try to apply quick fixes. Thanks Richard. Unfortunately I notice mine all the time.

Hi, New to this forum and hope someone can advise. I bought a new Skoda Fabia (14) in January. I have only ever owned fabias, this is my third. Have always been a big fan but I am beginning to hate this new one. There has been a problem with ratlling / vibratiions around the dashboard from the very early days of driving it. The problem is the noise seems to move around - initially thought it was the windows, then the air vents. It's as if nothing fits properly. Have had it back into dealer twice who say they cannot hear the problem. Recently I am sure the noise is coming from somewhere around the windscreen wipers mechanism as the noise on central area of dashboard. This rattle in particular is pretty much constant. I am fed up applying Blu Tak to different parts of the dashboard. It is a brand new car!!! Driving me to distraction. Just wondered if anyone has had similar experience? Thanks
