    Dash (AC vent) rattle?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Today (at apprx 4300 miles), my S3 started to develop an annoying rattle at low speed that sounded like it is coming from the dash (AC vent area)
    Anyone with similar problems..potential cause?

    Check the kick panels under the steering wheel...mine started making a squeezing noise, thought is was the vents but it turned out to be the drivers side kick panel had barely come loose...possibly when the P3 gauge was installed.

    There is a TSB out for a rattle from the center of the dash it is the wire harness for the engine sound speaker hitting the body panel.
