Not noticed rattles as such, but I do hear a kind of cracking noise from the centre console.

We get this. It is due to the passenger arm rest touching the centre console and the leather against the plastic makes are terrible noise. The arm rest drops over a few days until it rests on the centre console. A quick screw back up to it's normal height and the noise has gone. Matt ------------------------------------------- RRS ownership for 1 yr, then D3 for 2 yrs. Then cut back to old bangers and working my way back up through two Peugeots in 6 months. Now got Saab 9-5 2.3t and enjoying the performance! |

The rattle from the rear quarter is probably a loose ECU behind the loadspace trim. Your dealer would be able to remove the trim and secure the ECU on your next dealer / service visit.

Smoogle, you should be careful when adjusting the tailgate buffer settings because you could cause a water ingress issue by trying to reduce a rattle. There is a very thin dividing line between the two. Arctic Frost TDV6 SE. Aspen Leather, Cherry Wood, Privacy Glass, PTI, Tow Pack, Mudflaps, Tasmods, a new Fuelflap, a RRSport.co.uk umbrella in the boot & a RRSport.co.uk sticker on the rear glass.

Fair enough, TB! I haven't had to do this myself but it's been a solution on here for solving rear quarters rattles before now. Good advice though from one who should know!
