Quick question, where the windshield meets the dash. The mesh trim in the picture, how do I remove it? I can here like something is rattling under there.

Not sure how to remove that, but before you do, mine was "rattling". I found that it was rubbing against the A pillar, and that was causing the rattle noise. I cut a small piece of black plastic card and stuck it in the gap between the mesh piece and the A pillar, and the noise stopped.

I had a similar clicking noise. Turned out it was the middle gauge pod clicking against the black plastic under it. A small piece of felt fixed it for me.

Just curious what you mean by middle gauge pod. Are you referring to the speedometer?

I'll bet he is. . . but that noise is not limited to the C-Class family. I have the same noise on my E400, and the dealer "cannot replicate" the noise. I'm just waiting until I can find some black felt to press in above the speedo.

Ah, you mean the plastic trim piece under the dash edge over the speedo? I've had that one too, felt taped it in between the trim and the dash.

jmueller

Yes. The speedometer. I put the felt under the silver gauge pod to stop the annoying clicking.

Were did you pick up the felt? Any hardware store?

jmueller

Buy some Velcro and use the soft side. It has sticky tape already on it to secure the Velco-felt. Any craft store or any pharmacy (CVS, Walgreens, ect.) or even grocery store, should have Velcro.

I got some felt and placed it under the speedo as well I placed some between the a-pillar and the mesh near the windshield. The noise is gone!!! Thanks guys, I can now drive without the radio on and enjoy the real music.

Cool. Ain't it strange how such a tiny area of rubbing will make such a resonating (and irritating) noise??
