Hey guys. I've just bought my dc5s. Just noticing some noises that I didn't notice when i took it for a test drive.

1. Rattle on bumpy roads comming from dash, below front windscreen

2. Rattle comming from glove box

Has anyone else experiance these problems?, and any ideas and solutions?

With the rattle comming from the dash, below the windscreen, i shove something between the gap of the windscreen, and the dash, and sometimes the sound disapears.

With the glove box, sometimes i play around with it, like open it up, and it maybe stop for a little bit.

sorry to say, but that's a problem with all DC5.
i've had two now and both has the same issue.
you can go over all of those issues and try to resolve it, but without knowing exactly where they're coming from, there's no way to fix it, but I'll try to help.
1) get a piece of rubber and wedge it between the windscreen and dash. something like a wiper blade that you don't use anymore.
2) remove everything from your glove box and see if the noise is there after driving it for some time. if the noise is gone, then it's what's in the glove box that's making the noise, this works for me.

with the amount of threads you have made, I think you'll find a fualt with every car.

If your worried about rattles, get a European car... that is built in Europe (Not like some VW Golf's that are built in South Africa)
