Annoying Rattle

[jess]

One of the Technical Service Bulletins reads like it covers many of these issues.

Sounds like a lengthy disassembly and reassembly at the dealership so I can understand their lack of candor.

Earlier today, I tried the same thing using some pieces of black felt. It seems to have done the trick. Since the problem is sporadic, it will take some time to tell for sure.
