  1. I found another rattle in this area. It's the bonnet release handle resting against the trim when in the closed position. My solution was to slide a little piece of black heat shrink under the door rubber so that it sticks out and in the path of the edge of the handle making contact with the trim. The heat shrink I used was 15mm wide and cut 18mm long, just enough to stop the rattle. I removed the Velcro from the glovebox handle as it seems it isn't necessary. There is movement there but no rattle. I did add 3-4 inches of insulation tape to the lock on the glovebox. Wrap it around the little bar that the catch goes against. This fix and the bonnet release fix has transformed my driving experience.

  3. William2 started following Glove box rattle?
  4. I have just fixed a rattle in my glove box. The handle was very slightly loose when the box was closed. I stuck a little of the soft velcro to the glove box door so that the handle would rest against that. Just behind the top of the handle. Very thin velcro and very little needed. I am sure there are other ways of taking up the slack in the handle.
