Thread: Dash rattle on mazda 3 mps

  1. Default Dash rattle on mazda 3 mps

    Hi just purchased a mazda 3 mps, on the road test I noticed a dash rattle coming from the windscreen area.
    i couldn't stop this by hold or pressing any areas whilst driving.
    i did a quick google search there and then and noticed that this is a comon issue.
    are there any guides to removing the cowling as this seems to be what everyone refers to.
    dont like the main dealers/stealers!!!
    any help would be much appreciated

    Gen1 or gen2?
    I've found that the case around the seatbelt lights above the rear view mirror rattles actually in my gen1. Haven't managed to fix it yet though

    Could it be the famous glovebox rattle of the 3?

    I've fixed two dash rattles recently in my 3. First was the keyless entry sensor right up under the dash. Gotta remove everything to get to it. Second was the a pillar blade that goes through the dash. Both passenger side.
