Angry Squeeky dashboard in my 2008 E350 Help!

I just picked up a CPO 2008 E350 and the only problem is when I hit a bump the dash on the driver side squeeks. It sounds like it's coming fron the instrument cluster or jsut abovve it. It's driving me crazy....any help would be appreciated

Dealer should cover CPO repair, mention DTB P-B-68.10/53 - Noises at instrument panel.

I dont have any problems with my E, but I remember there are quite of few people with the C w204, the dealers installed felts around and inside the cluster bezel (the surrond cover of the cluster) and that seem to fix the problems. Should be a simple fixed for the dealer.

I have a similar problem with my nav screen vibrating and rattling. Does anyone else have this?

That sounds kind of odd that the nav screen would be vibrating and rattling. These things to me feel as if they are secured on so tight that I wouldnt even know where to start if I wanted to removd it. Definitely have it checked out by the dealer. Or maybe there is a DIY for swapping out screens which I am sure someone have done it before here.

I bought some felt weather stripping from my local hardware store for $2 and stuffed it under the instrument cluster and it workd like a charm. No more noise. Thanks for everyones help.
