Ive posted this before I had a crazy center dash rattle when going slow speeds through neighborhoods ect. Nearly drove me to the insane ward. Tore out the whole dash, heater core ect. to try and hunt this noise down. Nothing it would not go away!!

One day I happened to lean on my hood near the top corner and herd the same noise I thought was rattling in my dash. One of the hood rubber adjustments had somehow turned it self loose and was rattling against the hood. Moral of the story sound travels.

Good luck!

I just had my whole cluster area apart for LED'S and figured I'd definitely find my mystery rattle too, couldn't find a darn thing, but now I'll check the hood!
