BRZ Headunit/Radio Rattle
I had what I thought was a rattle from the trim surrounding the radio after having the GPS antenna TSB performed. However, after still experiencing a rattling noise after removing the radio trim and driving around, I noticed that the rattle is in fact coming from the radio faceplate. Is anyone else experiencing a similar issue? I'll contact the dealer about it soon but I'm not quite sure what they'll do about it since there's no obvious easy fix for it.

..
almost same issue here. But mine is the actual trim around the radio. Driving me insane!!. Packed it with foam the other day, still there. When I remove the trim the sound is gone. It's a plastic rubbing sound. Will scout the forums for solution. |

I pulled apart the radio trim today in an effort to duplicate the rattling noise while stationary. I was unable to definitively pinpoint the source of the noise but I was able to duplicate it which should be helpful in getting the dealer to resolve it. I uploaded a video to Youtube which features me duplicating the noise and have attached it to the first post. Make sure your volume is turned up.

Bumping this old thread instead of making a new one. My 2013 Bespoke HU is rattling like crazy. If i push down on the dash, like on the "leather" part of the hump that sits on the middle vents, it goes away. I hate rattles so this is driving me nuts. Anyone have a solution?

Bringing back old thread. Occurs in my 2013 BRZ Limited as well. I can push in the head unit and the rattle won't come back for various lengths of time. Typically occurs (but not limited to) when under 2000 rpm and strolling through my neighborhood. Forgot if it happens on the freeway as well. I'm over 60,000 mi so I no longer have a warranty under Subaru. I'll try to take the head unit out and see what all the fuss is about.
Edit: Ha! Just realized the last post was exactly one year ago. |
