Steering wheel control panel removal
Hi,
Anyone has any clue on how to do it (no luck w forum search), or any workshop (mine is PI) that knows? The one on the right is rattling loud, at traffic stops (in D gear). I'm a quite surprised.
Thanks in advance.

It might be your engine mounting that has worn out bro which is causing all the rattling sounds when you are stationary.
Its a known problem with the Renesis and mountings need to be changed every so often.
I had the same problem and MM changed mine for free as my car is still under warranty. The car now is smooth as silk and has zero noise & vibrations, even when stationary and idling.

hi,
I am aware of the engine mount thingy - thks. But it can't be - mine's only at 6K mileage! The car does idle rough at stops, but I think it's ok.
Perhaps I should clarify - it's the small blank panel cover on the steering wheel on the right side - the left side is the audio control panel. It buzzes like a bee, of and on.
Cheers.

I would think there are some kinda screw at the back of the said panel u mentioned.
Is there? I'm just guessing...

Yup, I do have some rattling noise too, like some wire came loose from its clip and its rubbing against other surface when ever I'm doing heavy steering (eg parking). Hope some one can advise the 'operation' to access the steering. M only afraid of the air-bag. thus dont really dare to touch it.
