I have noticed that the upper clamshell on the steering column (what the turn signal and wiper stalk goes through) makes a high pitched rattle/vibration noise. Giving it a good smack or pushing it fore/aft temporarily minimizes the issue but it always seems to come back. I need to take a closer look at it some point to see if i can fix the problem.

Mine seems to be more due to road vibration- I only notice it when I'm on the freeway and the bumps are high frequency. It could be related but it sounds like you have a slightly different issue than the one I have. I am disappointed in the rattles in this car.

I had the same vibration-type rattle coming from the instrument cluster/HUD area. I took it to the dealer who kept it for days, then replaced the entire instrument cluster. It seemed to work at first, but now it's back - albeit less frequently.

Mine is from the driver side window and when I had the window down the rattle went away, had a conversation with dealer foreman and he mention that they would install a strip of Teflon tape on the window rubber that would solve the problem. Dropping off the vehicle next week and hopefully they got the problem fix.
Another rattle is from the steering column and dealer would do the repair at the same time.

Unless BMW NVH engineers give them a call with a TSB with step by step directions of how to fix these types of issues they will never get it right. All they do is shoot in the dark and hope for the best. They would seriously need a 4 POSTER squeak and rattle machine to replicate issues like where I work, and I have never ever seen any dealer stock one of these expensive machines. .

There will never be a TSB for a rattle. Trust me. It's a roll of the dice. To the manufacturer it's such a minute issue they will just let the customer complain if they hear it. Less an issue like if a speaker is not shot or a window flopping around in your door because of improper assembly casing crazy rattles, then yes they will address it because it's of course an issue at the assembly plant. Issues for example wires moving around rattling a bit under your dash and you may catch it and I may not because I don't care or don't hear as well as you do will always be a let the customer complain and we'll address it.

I have a rattle in my drivers door. I only notice it when driving on rougher surface. I'm guessing the noise is coming from the panel not being seated properly. I've tried pushing on the panel when I hear it and it seems to tighten things up enough to eliminate the rattle. Does anyone have pictures of the interior panel removal?

I don't have any real rattles in my car, but get creaks from the nav screen and plastic trim finishers. Pressing on it can temporary get rid of it. Was thinking of putting some tape on the back of it. Anyone tried this?
But since I upgraded my speakers in the car I don't notice the creaks as much. |

I had a nasty sounding one that started on a drive home today and it was a loud clicking that appeared to be coming from the steering wheel area. Possibly from under the plastic cover that covers the wiper and turn signal stalks.
I really really hope it goes away because I can hear it even with music in some cases, and I like to listen to Elvis Duran in the morning so it would be very annoying to hear that clicking all day every day. I would lose my sanity.
