I can't hear a rattle inthe vid.. But check your grab handle, right by your head. Mine rattles sometimes too. TONS OF RATTLES IN THIS CAR!!!!!!

I think it's that bobble toy attached to the air vent, lol

That's the sound of your turn indicators. Most BMW Drivers never use...that's why they never hear them.

It's not the windshield. Tracking it down can take forever. My previous car developed a rattle that drove me nuts for months. It seemed to be coming from the dash, it turned out to be a short piece of one of the coil springs had broken off and wrapped around the strut.

Because the rattling sound sometimes will gone..... I think it's something loose.....

This. I just took mine in for a rattle, picked it up because they said it was fixed, and 20 minutes after driving it, the rattle came back!

I had most of mine fixed but the entertainment display sometime creaks and my drivers side door lock nipple also rattled when I take a hard left.

I believe i have the same issue and it drives me crazy, but I dont have a solution. I took to bmw and rhey added some insulation under headsup display, that didnt work. I think its some rubber pieces being loose under the hood near the dash, but cant confirm. I may try to doubleside tape them down

I dont follow you. Are you saying that what you did seems to have fixed the issue? If so what specifically was the fix?

The dealer knew about the issue and added a double layer on mine but it still creaks but only when going over bumps so I just now put up with it.

Can you please describe which part they put the double layer on? I assume this means double layer of tape? Or does it mean double layer of insulation? Or a thicker rubber piece?

I believe I have the same problem.
Try using your windshield wipers and see if the sound goes away while they are in use. Believe I read somewhere it's the wipers.

Let me know
