New CLS with Issues. Rattling noise and malfunctioing rear automatic sunshade screen

I took delivery of a 2016 cls 400 4matic with 9000 miles on it 1 week ago.
I`m totally in love with the car.

The second day after delivery, I noticed certain problems that I'm not happy about. I spent a fortune on the car and I wasn't expecting to start making trips to the MB dealership this early.

Active Problems

1. Rattling noise when car is running. this is more audible when idling. I read a few post and I'm not sure if its coming from the instrument cluster or anywhere else?

2. The day I received the car, the automatic rear sunshade screen worked with the push of a button. Fast forward to two days later, I pushed the button and the rear sunshade wont move (not working).

3. I have a galaxy s6 phone and the Bluetooth audio sync function works perfectly with my Honda Odyssey, displaying the song info (Metadata) on the screen while using various apps (YouTube, Pandora, and Microsoft Groove). When I connected my new CLS via Bluetooth to the command center, No song info was displayed on the MB screen. I tried all 3 apps (YouTube, Pandora and Microsoft Groove) that worked perfectly on my Odyssey. The songs plays fine on the MB command center and I can skip between songs etc., but no song info is displayed on the command screen.

As anyone experience similar issues and what will you guys recommend?

Planning on going to MB dealer this week.

The dealer is your friend, or should be. Tell them you want a loaner of equal or better value.
