Rattle or NOT?
We need a better description of the problem, obviously. But most rubber noises (not engine related) can be cured with Shin-Etsu grease. Check my thread:

As for today I dont know when will this "rattle" or sound occur again, I will try to record it as it happens again. I let the car sit under direct sun light and then get inside and turn on my engine. Next i heard some "rubber" or plastic scratching sound coming from the front (i am not sure is it inside the steering wheel or from engine, but not from center units)
Yes!!
I have that SAME noise! Same scenario.
After the car has been sitting in the sun, temp is hot, etc.
I start the car and I hear that noise... I just can't remember if it makes the noise before/after I put it into drive.
I can't even pinpoint where it's coming from. It just does it once and sounds like something is rubbing or shifting and then I won't hear it again until it's sat for atleast 4 hours in the sun.

I'll try to record it with my iphone... the mic is really sensitive on it.
It wasn't hot enough yesterday (low 70's) for the noise to happen. But it'll be hotter tomorrow and friday.
its so strange.
