3rd Row Clunk Noise?
I'm taking the GL for service on Wednesday, so I'm looking out for weird noises as I am almost out of warranty (My 2010 is less than 2 years old, but I drive A LOT!) and I want the dealer to fix everything before I had to pay. So far, the drivers seat panels on the side are creaking, the passenger sun visor creaks when I fold it out, the center console makes a clicking noise when I open it, the 2nd row access seat to the 3rd row makes a squeak noise when it is folded up and I rock it gently, the second row seat behind the driver has a loose plastic panel, and the 2nd row 60 split part of the bench makes a squeak noise when folded.
One more noise: When folding up the 3rd row seats using the electronic buttons, I hear a metal pop/clunk noise right about when the seats are almost folded up. Does this happen to anyone else or should I be obsessive and tell the dealer about noise #1,000,000?
Another thing: there are some white specks on my black steering wheel that don't come out with soapy water or leather cleaner. They are super small, but I am OCD so they irk me. Has anyone seen anything similar?
