Cure for glove box rattle?

Post by Zolder » Wed Jul 02, 2008 1:00 pm

Hi All,

Have my Rs4 for about two months now and im loving every minute of it!!
However ive had a dashboard rattle from early on, emanating from the hinge of the glove box. Ive tried tightening and loosening the two nuts that hold the hinge, this has improved the situation somewhat but the rattle is always there when driving over rougher surfaces such as roads surfaced with concrete slabs, coarse asphalt etc. When I leave the glove box lid slightly open the rattle disappears. Has anyone got a cure for this problem?? Its bugging the s**t out of me now!!

Are the rubber 'stops' on place?

I had the same problem with the arm rest and the dealer replaced it under warranty.
