interior rattling

mcoupe5/6 · 09-09-2013, 01:55 PM

i had a quick question...
i've been driving my z4mc lately and the plastic piece around the passenger window button seems to rattle when i get to 20mph+.
this is the piece i'm referencing

does anyone have a good idea on how to cure this? maybe some type of interior glue or just get a replacement piece...

Thanks for the help

Maybe some felt pads to make it stay more firmly in place.

How does that piece mount? Some clips have a little foam ring that prevents vibration. I added these on my inner B-pillar trim to cure a vibration.

WHS Thin self-adhesive foam weather strip works great.

BMW dealer sells felted tape specifically used to fix interior rattles.

Thanks for the tips. I'll grab some of the mounting tape, I haven't pulled the piece up yet though. Has anyone removed it before? Don't want to damage it.
