Replying to: rumba1 (Sep 02, 2006 8:59 pm) That's a great idea. I'll have to give it a try. My squeaking isn't coming from under the gearshift though. It's coming from the inside-right side of the storage compartment. If I place my hand inside the storage compartment and press (pretty hard) towards the right, it stops.   I may still take the storage compartment out and try placing a few of the felt tabs around to see what happens.   Thanks again!

The squeak is back. The dealer's fix did not keep it quit completely. The squeak that is there now is much less than before, but you can still hear it over the radio. I am now going to look into doing it myself using the method described at greenhybrid.com.
#44 of 122 Door rattles by grako Sep 07, 2006 (10:18 am)
I recently fixed the center console with felt pads after my dealer's felt tape failed to stop that rattle. Now I notice that either the windows are rattling in the doors when the car hits a bump, or the outside door handles are vibrating. Has anyone had that problem and found the cause?

Replying to: grako (Sep 07, 2006 10:18 am) I've been trying to find the source of that door rattle. I'm wondering if it's the rubber trim rubbing and making the noise, or if it's something inside the door.   Where did you put the felt pads to stop the console squeak? I'm trying to find the source of that noise also!   I haven't taken my car back to the dealer yet but usually they don't fix the noises and I end up fixing them myself anyway.   tom Replies to this message: grako (Sep 09, 2006 10:46 am)

Replying to: grako (Sep 07, 2006 10:18 am) I've got a rattle in my driver's door window that I only hear when going over bumps. I brought it back to the dealer, and they said they cleaned out the window track and lubricated the weather stripping. That took care of it for a day, it's back again. If I lower the driver's door window a little bit, the rattle goes away. I'll probably bring it back to the dealer when I have time. Replies to this message: chattguy (Mar 19, 2007 1:22 pm)

Replying to: downwind (Jun 14, 2006 3:51 pm) Yes, I have the same exact issue. It's not terrible, but any kind of vibration means friction and wear-and-tear. I'll be complaining about it in my first 5K checkup.

Replying to: tsy (Sep 07, 2006 11:45 am) I think message 37 or 39 on this site gives the link to the console fix. I used felt pads that are used on the bottom of chair and table legs. Seems to have worked so far.

Replying to: kc_rusty (Aug 31, 2006 4:34 am) Minor update - I used felts pads I bought at Costco and I thing they were thicker than the ace hdware ones. Result was an offset between the cup holder cover and the res of the flat plate. I removed the two center pads leaving only the left one and everythinh now lines up and all is still quiet. This car is amazing - other than this minor squeak - nothing has surfaced that requires repair - I have never owned a car setup this cleanly.. I am now crossing the 2K mark..
