Rattling/knocking sound from dash?

jmin725 · 12-13-2012, 11:05 AM

Hey guys,

I have a 2013 sports touring manual Z with about 7k miles on it...I noticed a rattling/knocking sound coming from the dash area of the car. It happens every time i go over a bump even at the slightest..For the life of me I cannot locate the sound!!!!!! and its very frustrating....does anyone know what that could be? i did some searching around and found various responses but not sure what it could be...some saying it could be your suspensions etc...any imput would be great. Thanks!

Some of the earlier 370s had some excess sealant in the HVAC system that caused a buzzing noise. There is at least one other topic on this site that gives more info. IIRC, it's covered under warranty. Use the search feature at the top of every page and try "dash rattle" or just "dash".
