I have noticed that my glove box, either upper or lower - haven't narrowed it down yet, started to rattle when the outside temperature is relatively cold outside ~50 degrees. It's more of a chatter sound, kind of like teeth chattering. Anways, as soon as my interior warms up, the chatter no longer appears. Has anyone had a similar situation?

I noticed it too. Mine is definitly the upper glove box. I do not have a solution yet, but i am going to try some felt pads.

Make sure it's not your tweeters. Mine rattles when cold.

BUMP. Have a 2012 Pro4x with a rattle behind the gloveboxes somewhere? Any ideas? It sounds like a quiet bb dancing on a tin pie pan. Driving me bonkers !:angry5:

I have the problem also. As soon as the heater warms the car, the rattle goes away.

Learn to deal with it. I've tried felt, foam, taking **** apart and tightening everything I could find. It just does it. One of the many rattles and squeaks you'll get used to over time.

Found my rattle. Maybe yours too.

:brave: Sounds are hard to pinpoint so I started looking elsewhere. My `glovebox rattle` which I swore was where it was coming from turned out to be the tip of the plastic air duct underneath the passenger seat, amp and carpet. I tapped on the end of it and there it was. Just got the truck new 5 days ago so this was driving me crazy. I used two plastic shims wedged between the duct the amp. Worked perfectly. :cheers: If anyone needs pictures I can post them. Now to find the rattle over my left shoulder in the pillar... or is it in the cargo area... or

Pics please!

I will take pics this evening and post tonight.

You have to move the passenger seat all the way forward to see this. Again, its not the amp shroud that`s making the rattle, it`s the tip of this little plastic heater duct. The plastic shims I used are convieniently red so you can see them. Let me know if this is the ghost rattle that many have been trying to track down. I can sleep at night now. :sleepy2:

I have the same, and i know it's the lower glove box, as if I press on it, no more rattle. Yet I tried foam, rubber, two sided tape, anything, and it would not go away. Glad it's spring, and it's warmer, so I'm Ok till next season.

I went nuts one day and I found out where mine was coming from. On the A-Pillar plastic piece, there is a small tab that inserts into a slot on the side of the dashboard when the pieces are put together. You'll find the "connection" area of the two between the two pieces, basically on the far right of the dash board. I found that the connection of the two pieces was causing a rattling when I drove, especially in the cold. I line the connection with duct tape and put the pieces together, poof, no more rattling.

Of course, every truck has it's small differences (i.e. fitment differences) that may be causing rattling elsewhere.

I have a rattle coming from the rear hatch, driver's side...only becomes evident when truck is idling at low revs (e.g at stop lights, etc). Of course, when I took it to the dealer, the X conveniently decided not to exhibit the rattle. Ain't that always the way?

Haven't been able to pinpoint it, but if anyone has had a similar experience and fixed it, I'm all ears.

Thanks
