I have a 2015 TLX SH-AWD and have begun hearing an intermittent rattle behind the dash or glove compartment.

I know about TSB 15-042 which mentions symptoms as a "flutter" (whatever that means) behind the glove compartment. The TSB says this "flutter" would only be heard when the heat and the fan are on and set at maximum.

It's in the 70s and 80s here still, so the vehicle has not had the heat on (still using A/C). I'm perplexed though as to why the rattle seems to come and go.

Has anyone experienced the symptoms from the TSB? If so, can you describe what the symptoms were for you?

I had a "rattle" from the passenger side of my dash. I opened the glove box and removed the papers and owners manual that kept sliding side to side on turns....problem solved.

That was the first thing I did...removing everything from the glove box. No change.

It's an intermittent rattle, and occurs on straight roads, so the the contents of the glove box aren't/weren't the issue, but thanks for the suggestion.

No worries...I always try looking for the easy fix!
