Question Dash noise

Anybody ever get an annoying rattling sound coming from somewhere behind either the golve box or air bag? Driving me nuts.

That's pretty funny Farmer. I find that if I shoot my .45 in the truck, I will never here that sweet cummins noise again because I will be deaf "Ha". I hope your not doing any shooting while in somekind of road rage.

Roadrage requires a bigger gun than a 22

Shootin gophers out the window (maybe its 'prarie dogs' in your neck of the woods)

I've got a weird rattle that just started, but it's on the driver's side. I guess if it bothers me enough, I'll have to tear into it and find it.

Mine just started the left side noise too. I was wondering if it was an ice build-up around the door area or something like that. If anybody figures it out let me know.

Its a truck and will rattle and squeek as it should but check all your screws in and around the dash for tightness.

I get some when it is really cold and just is expansion or contraction of the plastic on plastic most of the time

Corey come join us MN DTR users at our first meeting see below.

MnTom may well have the solution to sudden rattles in cold weather. Bits of ice get trapped under the wiper arm and i could swear thet the noise is inside the cab.
The other rattle that I get that seems to be in the dash is a loose door panel.
Who knows?

Funny, It got colder (ask Srigs) and my noise is now gone. I am thinking it is an ice build-up issue at least on mine.

My glove box rattles a little. Not enough crap in it yet I spend too much time in the '93 I guess.
