Bulletin number for center dash rattle?

Does anyone know if there's a bulletin number for the infamous rattle in the center dash? There's a near constant rattling/ticking sound coming from below the Comand screen near the center a/c vents in our E-class. Any info is appreciated.

Cr*p. I have heard a very slight rattle coming from exactly where the above posts describe. It is very intermittent. Anyone else have this issue and/or have had it resolved? Mine will do it on the way to a store, then park and come out and it won't do it again for a couple days. Then it will do it again for no reason. Only when going over some pretty good bumps. Thanks!

Could you describe this as a "squeak" sound, that happens usually when you're sitting (otherwise) quietly at idle?

I have a subtle squeaky sound, that I only hear with the radio off, and when the car is at idle, especially when in gear (when the idle is putting a "load" on the engine).

I can't pinpoint where it's coming from, but it seems like it would be around the A/C Vents.

I had a ticking sound in my dash that turned out to be the fan when operating at very low speed. The fan was replaced and the ticking is gone. This was on my 2010 E.
