I have posted this previously, but has been lost in the middle of other discussions (Rattle and iPod)

I have found the source of the noise.....

Between the passenger end of the dash and the A pillar

In removing this entire panel the noise had stopped, so i smeared vasoline across the leading edge of the panel that get inserted between the door hinge and dash. This cured it for a while until the heat melted it.

Removing the end panel (similar to the fuse cover on the drivers side) its less noticable.

I have inspected the panel and the far left hand clip looks broken???

Can someone else check theirs - and be careful not to break it when removing.

mine too had broke, had it replaced under warranty and it still creaked. they've sorted it now though, not quite sure how lol

So there's an outside chance that the Dealer may be able to resolve this for me then !

My clip is also broken (I think its due to a tight squeeze when assembling). I found the noise was more from the doorcard against the door. They tried sorting it which broke the door card and resulted in a new one.

Make sure all your snap fittings are attached, one of mine popped of and was sitting on the head of a screw under the vent resulting in a rattle.
