Rattle fixed!

Took my car in yesterday for 10,000 mile oil change and tire rotation. I also had them take a look at the rattle that was coming from the center of the dash, around the speedometer. It seems to be worse in the morning, when the dash is cold. And diminishes once the sun warms it up. However, they had no problem finding it yesterday afternoon. As a matter of fact, they said it was pretty bad. They removed the speedometer, and placed foam behind that area. They kept it overnite to test this morning while it was cold. The rattle is gone! Now I dont HAVE to always listen the radio. And my friends will ride in my car again.

They gave me a Tc to drive. I was glad to get my car back.

yeah my car has some rattles. the most annoying one is coming from the driver side of the dash during braking. as soon as the car comes to a stop, it quits rattling. i've tried pressing on parts of the dash during braking to see if i can get it to stop but no luck yet. i also have a rattling noise coming from the speedometer area.

There is another Thread on that issue... The RPMs rev at 600 on Idle, It saves gas that way!

Problem when the fan kicks on it drops a little and it gets to that "about to stall phase" Thats the reason it shakes, it's about to stall, but the ECU pulls it out right away... You can raise your Idle RPMs if you’d like, That would fix it for good... But you'll loose some of your Gas Mileage.

Otherwise its completely Normal!!!!

Now its worse then ever, and I hear other parts rattle aswell.

Ugh.

And toyota says they have never heard of such an issue. :(

The rattle happens when I turn on the lights, so it has to do with the rpms.The lower the rpms, the worst the rattle becomes.

The fact that you asked probably means that you do not have a rattle. Congratulations!
