I think i posted the solution here somewhere a long long time ago. I too had that rattle from the key ring against the key. My solution was to use heat shrink tubing. After installing the key into the key ring, i wiggled a " just the right size heat shrink tubing " into he key ring. After wiggling the key ring into the tubing heated the tubing and it embraced the key ring tight. No more rattles for me. And it looks clean.

Neat solution, I like it. My key fob, which is actually a "Remove Before Flight", strap doesn't rattle, but I will remember it for the future.
Great solution Rick! I was so surprised to see this post, having the same issue. My daughter made me a key ring for Christmas, but the rattle was driving me nuts. I too am going to give this a try!!
I have one of the ridiculously expensive Porsche steel cable fobs with a Kroger card between my Porsche key and my house key. Rattle free. But your heat shrink tubing sounds pretty cool and cheaper by comparison.

I must be the village's idiot, I cannot visualize this exactly. Do you have any pictures?
Ran into this very issue with Cayenne 955. Took 8 months to identify what it was and in process, pry off various top left corner trim pieces to see if there's anything loose below :/
Solution: an additional small soft silicone cable tie "circle" between metal ring and plastic.
Key Rattle solution?
