The upper section of my MY09 TDV6 HSE glove box rattles. It annoys me. I usually have the stereo on when I'm by myself, but when I have a passenger, I usually don't ... and the rattles annoys me.

Is this a common problem? Is is just a case of taking it off and putting it back on again more securely? I've been mad for flipping years, absolutely years, over the edge for yonks.

Unfortunately upper glove box rattles are a common problem, which can develop at any time.

One way of temporarily fixing the rattle is to "slide" the glove box lid to the left or right, to introduce a hard foul condition between the two parts of the latch mechanism. But this will only cure the rattle for a short period. As soon as you open and close the glove box the rattle will return.

A more robust fix is to wrap some electrical tape around the latch ring. This will cure the metal to metal contact. Arctic Frost TDV6 SE.

i had the same problem, i took it to the dealers and had a new glovebox fitted under warranty. no more rattles

Thanks for the info The glovebox on my D3 does exactly the same. It drives me nuts I did look to see if I could adjust the latch but theres nothing to adjust. I think I'll book it in for a new glovebox  Global Warming.... I'm luvvin it.

Had the same problem - took it to the dealers and they sorted it under warranty - I think they either tightened up hinges or fitted new grommets on the top edge, they didn't need to change the glove box door and all is now fine.
