Ooohh, this is kinda my biggest problems with all my cars. I keep putting stuff (mostly pennys) in between plastic parts that touch each other. The one who finds all the coins in my sold 2007 R32 must be very confused. At least 15 coins is stuck inbetween stuff in that car :lol:

But on the RS4 the most annoying sound ive had was, as soon as i slowly drove over a speedbump or something, my passanger seat squeeked alot (almost like the wood floor and doors in all horror movies). I took a bit of tape and made the seat back mounts abit thicker and then the noise disappeared. Win!

Also on cold days i have a rattle in the passenger bucket seat aswell. Mostly i just have to move the seat slightly forward and its ok, but sometimes im getting real crazy.
There are 2 things thats really working for me, and its either revving it up and drive faster, or put up the volume of the music.....

Have a squeak from the drivers seat from time to time. Sounds like it's coming from around my right shoulder. Annoying...

I had the same thing. Either putting the passenger seatbelt into the buckle or velcro it to the centre console :thumbs:
