What Causes the Rattle in the Car's Center Console?
1 Answers
Car center console rattles can be caused by loose fixing screws or loose trim panel clips. The specific reasons are as follows: Loose Fixing Screws: Rattles in the center console are usually caused by loose related fixing screws or detached clips. In this case, it is necessary to go to a repair shop to check the related fixing screws and clips. If it is confirmed to be loose, simply retightening them will suffice. If the clips are detached, replacing them with new ones will solve the problem. Loose Trim Panel Clips: Another reason could be loose clips on the A-pillar trim panels on both sides of the center console, or slight deformation of the trim panels causing the rattle. If the issue lies with the A-pillar trim panels, they can be removed and soundproofing and vibration-damping foam can be added, which can effectively prevent rattles.
