Interior Trim Rattle
Hi all,
2010 Cayenne V6 with 70k miles. There's this interior trim rattle that driving me nuts and I can't find what's causing it. It sounds like it's coming from the front passenger side corner (maybe footwell? dashboard?). It sounds like a bee buzzing constantly. I couldn't find any loose trim pieces just by looking around
You hear the rattle only when the car is in the bottom of 5th and 6th gear around town and the lowest speeds (30-40mph). Most likely it's engine vibrations that are causing this rattle, considering it's at the RPMs down low, but the engine is working hard to pull the car along.
Anyone else have this issue?

I narrowed this noise down to a loose mirror trim cover on the driver's side window. I removed the cover and placed some self-adhesive felt strips along the taps and the noise disappeared.
Another location that you may want to check is the tweeter/speaker cover in the corner of the dashboard. Some members have complained about this trim piece as well.
