Fabia 'sweet paper' dash rattle

Featured Replies

Mine did this (squeaky rustling crisp wrapper sound). The top of the instrument cluster squeaks. You can put pressure on the top with your finger and it stops. Fix was to add some felt, apparently.

I have noticed this also. If i press on the plastic above the dash clocks it goes away but it creaks at times and does sound like an empty crisp packet been crunched in your hand. In for service soon so make sure to point it out

By the way... the problem has since come back - seems it was a temporary fix at best. I'm led to believe there has since been a 'proper' fix, though don't know how true that is. Worth asking them how they're planning on fixing it though.

Had this on mine too: it has just been in for a service and they told me the plastic around the instruments wasn't fitted properly in the factory. The noise has gone! :-)
