Heres the buzzing I'm hearing.. its exactly the same as yours from the video. Thinking of taking it to the dealer and showing them that pic you posted of the report and see if they could do the same fix under warranty.

That's the exact damn noise. >:/

EDIT: decided to try out what was mentioned on page two by insulating between the bracket and the gas pedal. Used a strip of leather, I'll report back if it works.

Interested to see if this works.

Nope, I'm still hearing it. I'm going to try a thicker piece of felt or wool now.

I could confirm that after I installed the felt pad, the buzzing noise was gone.

Haven't heard it in days, and I would usually hear it on a daily basis.

So happy I don't have to bring the car in for warranty.

To my surprise after i loosen this screw the sound is gone. When I tried tightening it back, the sound comes back. It sounds like the plastic is rubbing/knocking against the metal bar behind.

What i did was to take some foam padding and stick it in between and the sound is gone.

Going to test drive it later

Thank you for this! This issue is how I found this great forum. The sound I am having is definitely very near the guage cluster. It looks like this screw is acceseed by taking the guage cluster out, yes?

I've also got an annoying rattle/buzz coming from the pedal area but this is Africa so I've used a nice, thick piece of cow.

It didn't solve the problem though.

My rattle sounds like it's coming from the furthest left side of the window de-fog vent.

ucsmfu · 01-26-2014, 12:28 AM

Can I ask how tight you made the bolts afterwards?

Yup, that's the noise. I see that you were driving around 78-80 mph...I don't notice it unless I'm over 70 and it's most likely to happen on concrete roads rather then black top.

Like you, I'm not likely to try accelerator isolation fix until it's warmer out. It's 16F as I type this.

Warmed up today and put on the felt. Haven't tested for the noise yet, will let you know.

Bought this felt:

I dont have the constant rattle and dont think mine is related to the gas pedal, but mine is definitely coming from the gauge cluster area and rattles every time i go over a little bump or any imperfection in the road. When I put pressure on the dash piece above the gauges, it stops it. Still investigating
