Squeak In Dash Finally Fixed After 6 years

well done sir!

 

I applied a similar fix a few years ago using some velcro tape that I had sitting around. My 2010 came off the first boat and the squeaks were ( and still are) really bad.

 

I wonder if this is where the noise is coming from. Usually mine sounds like its coming from the glove box area. I also only have the issue on certain type of pavement (ironically the smoother the pavement ie. concrete the worse it sounds) luckily for me most of our roads in ohio are asphalt and not cement sections.

 

Locating sounds can be very difficult, I once had a squeek/rattle of which I was positively sure it came from the center of my dash. Tried everything, I listened in various positions. I tried listening in the drivers's seat, in the back seat, in the passenger's seat. In all different seats the sound originated from a different location in the dash, but all the time from the dashboard...finally came to the conclusion that it was the overhead sunglass-compartment. Removed the sunglasses in there, squeek gone

Still have one that is in the dash next to the small triangular window on the driver's side, when I push down the rattle is gone, so I think I may have to remove the dash altogether and find out if some screws are loose....

 

I fixed the squeak in our '16 v. It started about 6 months ago and I took the dash apart and even drove it with the dash completely out and it was still there. A few weeks later I did the same thing with the help from a neighbor. It was coming from the firewall so we removed the wipers and took the plastic off at the bottom of the windshield and found a layer of dust between the 2. I cleaned the plastic and applied silicon spray where the plastic meets the windshield. Squeak is gone!
