    I’d like to think so but not only is it becoming more persistent at 32000km, but the other side is revealing its need for conversation too.

    This is the most frustrating phase of rattle control, trying to get the dealer to acknowledge it. I spent 12 months trying to get my dealer to identify the B-pillar rattle in my 2006 B6, and it took...

    Yep, agreed but it is driving me insane. I’ve opted for the trim replacement just to get it fixed. Fingers crossed.

    Yep, exactly the same.

    You'll find it here.

    The contact ends need to be very slightly bent inwards since it's out by no more than 2mm. In fact it does fit in, but just not snuggly enough to...

    Hi Neal

    Did this last week with a festoon LED from Autobarn. It doesn't appear to affect the Canbus so no error.
