I'm trying to find a reputable place in Vancouver, WA or Portland to diagnose and fix a rattle in my 2005 C6's dashboard. I've taken the car to a dealer but to no avail. I'm hoping that someone here can recommend someone who's adept at getting inside the dashboard and fixing the problem as it's become very annoying. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

May be worth driving 2.5 hours north to Corvettes of Auburn. See if they can schedule a day for you?

Good luck!

Thanks for the suggestion. I don't know anything about Corvettes of Auburn - do they do this type of repair?

Yes, Corvettes of Auburn can handle this repair.

However, have you read any of the threads about how a loose cowl, under the wipers, sounds like a buzzing in the dash?

The quick test for this is to tape the cowl down and then drive on the freeway.

If you end up coming here to Auburn, they could probably get it fixed while you wait. Dan and his crew are very competent and accommodating.

Thank you for the info, Fred. I knew about the cowl situation and tried taping it down in the hope that it might help but to no avail; the cowl isn't the source of the problem.

I appreciate your confidence in Corvettes of Auburn. On NofakeJake's suggestion I phoned them yesterday and as you stated, they said this was something that they're confident they could take care of. The only caveat is that they want to keep the car for at least few days in order to drive it under different temperature conditions in the hope of confirming resolution of the problem. That makes sense to me so I'll likely set up a time to drive the car up and let them have at it.

Thanks again to you and NofakeJake for your replies. I'll keep you posted.

You're welcome! Sorry for the delayed reply as I was on vacation.
