Dashboard Rattles

[jsj24uk]

I was daft enough to buy a copy of Whatcar magaziene over the weekend and I noticed a section in the back about purchasing a used Audi A4. In the section entitled "What to look for" were problems of excessive oil consumption, problamatic central locking which dealers find hard to repair, clutch and gearbox problems which didn't go into much detail, and last but not least, dashboard rattles. Seems the IS is not the only premium brand car suffering with this problem.

Just thought I'd pop this up to see what people think.

i've been to lexus service 3 times already only with rattle problem - and it seems to be still not sorted out finally :)

it is going to be really funny...

yes, rattle is really annoying especialy in cold weather...

but - this is quite common trouble for many brands (sometimes you can hear some rattle in BMW too...)
