rattling dash.......driving me crazy
06 f150 5.4 4x4 2,200 miles super cab
Got a rattle coming from what seems to be the center front of the dash up by the window to center left of the dash. Does not rattle over every bump, it just seems like the bigger ones. It sounds like it is coming right down by the front window, but some times it like it would be on the outside of the window by the black grates on the top of the hood. First time I heard it it sounded like that black vent would be making the noise on the out side. Also sounds like ice rubbing on the glass. Then again it seems to be on the inside down low by the glass, may be even under the dash???.
I was thinking of making some little sand bags and putting them on a area to rule that area out of making the noise.
I know that noises are hard to describe in words but am looking for any help I can get before I start taking the dash apart.
Anybody have some suggestions??
Thanks so much
Josh

I had a rattling problem in an older car back in the 1990's and I got into the dash trying to fix it. When I got done not only did i fix the original problem... I had three more noises coming from the dash I had to fix.
Good luck!
