I have had my 2005 TL with Navi (bought new on 1-2-2005) in the shop 3 times for a vibration noise in the dash next to the tach while going over our patched Indiana roads, and they can't seem to fix it .
They even ordered a new plastic piece for the dash display with no resolution.

Has anyone else had this problem? Is it fixed, if so how?
I can push on the inner plastic piece that has too much play and make the squeek almost go away completely. I have taken numerous drives with techs at the dealership and have shown them this, but they can't fix it.
Any suggestions?

did you check for the center channel speaker for rattles?

I did that last weekend and got rid of that rattle, which occurs around 1200 rpm.

Hey Kenny, thanks for the info but the squeek is next to the left of the steering wheel, around the gauge panel.

I hate that one... I still can't find the source of it.

Same Problem Here. The Next Time I Go In For An Oil Change I'm Bringing It Up.

I had a similar clicking/rattle coming from that area...I found out it was the "MAX" button jiggling and hiting the surrounding plastic...I took the bezel out and placed padded tape all around the buttons...just something to think about...

I bought my TL in July. I have had in it 3 times for rattles and going in for a 4th time next week for another rattle and Glove carpartment alignment. My sister has a TSX which she bought a month after I bought my car and her TSX is absolutely solid. There is not a single rattle in her TSX. What is up with the TLs and rattles?

The TL's are made in the USA; TSX's are made in Japan. I've been driving Honda's for 20 years, when they started making them in the USA, they started to rattle.
