I had the door cards off on my M235i, numerous times, and I never found anything inside the door that might rattle. It's super simple under there.

One of the main reasons I sold mine. SO MANY RATTLES. EVERYTHING RATTLED!
Seriously, even getting into the car shit would rattle. So damn annoying. Over a bump? RATTLE. Move in the seat? RATTLE. Change AC? RATTLE. Dont miss it at all.

I have the mirror rattle described in post 81. The dealer "fixed it" but it has come back (not as loud, however). I really don't want to take it back to the dealer, but I can't figure out how to separate the mirror housing without forcing it. The member who posted #81, Alby_416, does not appear to be active and his picture links are broken.
Has any one figured out how to separate the rear mirror (with Homelink)? Thanks in advance.

Cover removed: No sound, but this is what causes the noise... Foam put in to prevent the noise...success!

Kevin, did the cover come off by hand or did you need a trim tool? I want to have a go at this myself as mine has been back to the dealers several times and still have rattles.

No tool needed. Use your thumb and put gentle pressure at the the middle seam of the cover. Then separate one half and rotate it away. Finally rotate the other half off. Don't force - it is held together by plastic clips.

In the video I'm tapping a u-shaped piece of metal. Once you take off the cover its pretty easy to see where you need to put the foam on each side to prevent the metal piece from contacting with the glass.

Thanks. Weird, it seems to run on Safari but not on Firefox. It's similar to the video in post 81 if your are interested.

In all honesty.....as much as many of us might not like to hear this considering we paid a fair amount for these vehicles....
....just try and track down the rattle and apply some felt-tape in the area. ....its all the dealership does. I would know, I've spent some time in the service bays |

I have an annoying rattle that is difficult to detect. Sometimes it seems to come from the center light console sometimes from the A-pillar . I unnecessarily disassembled the A-pillar, center light console, center mirror cover, sun visor and sun visor latch but the rattles remains. It's a dry noise (like a "tack") it feels sometimes but really annoying.
He started doing it after 7,000 km in early autumn (this summer no rattles). I read that there is a PUMA case for A-pillar . I have read what this surgery consists of and I am afraid that other damage can be done. It is necessary to disassemble the windscreen and the entire dashboard in order to separate with a chisel the contact area of two plates of the car chassis at the base of the A-pillar. To whom has already had this intervention the rattles have been heard immediately or has it appeared after traveling several miles with a car? Is the rattle a dry "tack" ?

This. They also don't take much care in taking apart your car, putting it back together, etc. |

I had 2 rear deck rattles. One from the plastic covers and really difficult to find from this plastic wire harness attached to the body on the right side of the car behind this vertical side part of the backseat close to the c pillar.

Unfortunately with the condition of the roads we have here, rattles are unavoidable

I had my iDrive screen replaced under warranty, and the dealership fitted it crooked. I was annoyed, but once I got home I took it all apart and put it back together again and it's now fitted correctly. I think I am paranoid by not wanting my car worked on by anyone but myself unless I'm there, unless it's something as little as an oil change, but having the whole dash removed... I'd say your concerns are valid.

I solved a hard to locate long time rattle yesterday. Inside the headline/ceiling lights unit (or whatever it's called) the circuit board could move in the plastic housing just slightly. I put some small pieces of rubber foam in there so the circuit board couldn't move.
