Rattle from the central tunnel
Hello,
I'm the owner of 2016 GLS and trying to find out the cause of the rattle from the central tunnel. Its somewhere in the cup holder area (on the right side) and it happens when I'm going through rough route or bumbs. I took it to the dealer and they said they cant find the issue - well, in other words they don't like to bother with it.
I'm running these fancy 21" wheels and the car is a bit hard for me, but anyway I think there should not be rattle like this in such expensive and premium car. I used to ride Land Rover discovery for 5 years and never experienced such rattle.
Do you guys have some issues with the build quality (rattle) of your GLS? Any idea how to locate the cause of this rattle - maybe there's some manual how to remove the cup holder?
Thanks
David
