Rearview Mirror Buzz

Has anyone noticed that there is a buzzing sound coming from their rearview mirror? I noticed for mine, it only happens when the green light on the rearview mirror is on for the "auto dim" feature. When turned off, the buzzing goes away. I don't know, but it also seems to do with the uneveness of the road to some degree, but I can't say that the uneveness of the road plays a significant factor.

I have had the same issue. I think that it is just the assembly because when I squeeze it together the problem goes away for a while. I have not had any link to the green light except that when you press it then the pressure on the unit eliminates the small vibration. Yes an uneven road will "wake" mine up again but a small squeeze will fix it.
The other noise I have is if I use the sunroof. It seems to seat correctly after use but it will squeek a little. I have to open it and clean the rubber seal and painted area of the sunroof cavity.

I agree - I told my service writer that it only rattles between songs!

haha, exactly... Owning low end cars most of my life I think I have a higher tolerance for rattles and noise.
