I have a rattle in the dashpad/instrument cluster area as well. Seems to be temperature related. When cold it will rattle relentlessly. As soon as the sun hits it on the way to the service department it stops. Also, if you press down on the pad when it's rattling it stops. I've had it in 3 times for service and they can't replicate/find the culprit. They've added much felt tape but every time the sun goes down, the rattle returns.

When i'm driving on rough roads there seems to be rattles all over the center speaker area. Holding the cover doesn't seem to help. It's hard to pinpoint exactly where it is. This seems to be the only negative for the C450.

My car is going back to the shop tomorrow for the Power Steering recall, a couple long-term rattles which have gotten worse, and to officially put 'wind noise over mirrors' on the record so I can get acoustic glass.
The rattles are killing my experience with this car..

I didn't know there was a recall for that. Is this for the C450 because my car sometimes make a loud groaning noise when I'm making a u-turn in a parking lot.

Is it also normal for it to make that noise while reversing and turning the wheel quick? It seems to happen more often when i'm doing that.

My previous 2012 e350 had no storage for glasses, so rattles and all, I appreciate having somewhere to put my sunglasses in my c450.

C450 Rattling Noise
Just bought C450 AMG and loved the car except that annoying dashboard noise. It happens only on uneven road, in cooler temperatures, and slower speed. I am going to bring the car to the dealer for a checkup. If anyone owns the car and has this problem fixed, I will much appreciate if he or she can share the fixes. Thanks in advance.

Mine was noisy at first but after 1000 miles most of the interior rattleseems to be gone all on its own.. I think just time and various temperature outside may have gotten all the parts to settle..
