Center console-stereo area rattle
So, my 09 R3 while very nice inside has an annoying rattle, creaking noises that seems to be coming from the center console area. Unless I turn the tunes up, I hear it a lot and its bothering me.
Anyone else have this issue?
Is there a DIY to take it apart and address the parts that rub each other or make harsh contact or anyone done this and can tell me how to take apart the center console and stereo dash?
On my G35 sedan, I had teh same issues and there were TSB's whereby the techs installed some sort of felt to quieten the vibration and squeaks. I may do the same thing.
Thanks!

I took out my radio on my first try in 20 minutes without scratching a thing. Now I could take out the factory deck in 5 minutes.
My Pioneer crAppRadio? 2 minutes or less.
Prior to taking the radio out, I've never had any experience at all working with interiors.

amd - I have a ton of tools, so not worried about extensions. I need to really search and find out exactly how it all comes apart. Did you do a DIY anywhere?
I also need to research that felt tape. I wonder if I can just buy it from the Infiniti dealer since this creaking and noises is common on the G cars..Hmm.
EDIT - Found it in a quick search...

Sounds like this felt cloth tape can be used on PC's even for chassis vivration etc. I am going to have to get this and try it!

i have this same issue. mine isnt with the radio though, its the glove box latch. the left lip sags just a tad and knocks every now and then. it latches tight, but for some reason that lip sags. i tried torquing on the lid to try and re-form it but no luck.
