Dash rattle

Hi,

Has anyone else experienced any dash rattles in the 2017 C300 coupe? I have one that sounds like it's coming from directly in front of me. It sounds like a loose nut rattling and is very annoying coming from a $61k car. The dealer has been unable to locate/resolve it.

Thanks,
David

No squeaks yet, just rolled 1K in my 2017 C300 Coupe and that's when demons go to work.

Hi dmcconnell68

Did you manage to resolve this issue and if so what was the problem?

I am experiencing exactly the same rattle with my 2016 C Class Coupe C220d (UK)

Thanks

Hi, Unfortunately, it is not resolved yet. I took the cluster, left air vent and some trim off and thought I had found it being part of the HUD lens. I insulated that with felt tape, but it did not resolve the issue. I'm taking it back to the dealer next week to have them look at it again.

After taking it back in a couple more times, the dealer was finally able to find the issue. It was apparently something with the mirror in the HUD unit. They were able to stop the rattle but advised they were going to order a new HUD when they become available. So far their fix has held and I have not heard the rattle again.

I've got a 2017 UK C300 Coupe and my dash has started to rattle. I noticed it just before Christmas. Recently just gone over 3000 miles. Very annoying for any new car let alone one that's 40k+ over here. I don't have the HUD unit but I did go for the leather dash option. I'll be talking to my dealer about it in the week as there are a few other annoyances.
