Can one of you geniuses tell me how to....

....OK...my '06 developed it's first (and it's annoying) creak/rattle over the bumps and rough roads. It stops if I push in on the bottom right corner of the shiny center dash piece...you know, just to the right or bottom right of the temperature adjust ****.

Know how I can tighten that spot up? Please help this Dash Dummy?

Look up the removal instructions for the radio. That will get you underneath the plastic. Then, drive around with the plastic off so you can pin point the rattle. Most likely a loose screw or something. Good luck

Or look in the epic "rattle hunt" thread.

Maybe someone else has already had it and cured it?

The Rattle Hunt thread was hilarious! I guess I've been lucky so far. I'll search for radio removal. Thanks!
