Funny noise inside dashboard
Lately, I have drove my '96 Targa more aggressively since installing PSS9. I have noticed some clunking sound coming from behind the passenger side glove compartment.
I hear it when accelerating/braking, or doing a quick turn.
It sounds like something is loose inside. Seems to be rolling or moving. Does anyone know what this could be?
thanks,

I have the same problem on my 95 C2. After trying to follow where it might be coming from, I am more and more thinking it might be a loose part inside the gas tank. I could be wrong but it sure sounds like a slow roll of metal in liquid with limited travel.

I've recently noticed the same problem with my car, especially on track days when PSS-9's are full stiff and sticky Kumho's are mounted.
In my case it sounds like a small nut or screw rattling around behind the dash. It sounds like it moves at least a foot or two from side to side during hard cornering.
Fortunately, I have only heard it once or twice during street driving.
