The (Famous) dashboard rattle

Post by barcud »

Hi,
I've had my B7 for 5 months now and the dashboard rattle has been getting worse. Funny thing is the delivery mileage B7 I test drove had it and the salesman said 'What noise, I can't hear anything!' (Except the commision. LoL)
Anyway, it seems to change in volume when the Aircon/heating is doing different things but I haven't been able to suss out the pattern/connection yet.
Of course on billiard table Autobahns it make ne'er a squeak, its just we don't have those roads in the depths of Shropshire, or in the rest of the UK.

Has anybody tracked down what causes it, or got any interest from VW in sorting it?

John
