I plan to visit the dealership sometime soon, and I will post for any different solution if found.
Cheers!

When I shake mine they make the same noise, and then go away just like yours. Also, when I grab the shorter sides of the V bar (closest to firewall) I can actually shake its mounting point independently of the firewall, as if it’s just tack welds holding it on. Does yours do the same?
Edit: Also I wonder how much tension is supposed to be on the ball mount before tightening down, and maybe that is subject to change as the chassis flex.
