Default Back Seat Armrest/Cup Holder Rattle...

Anyone else have a rear arm rest that rattles/squeeks when you drive over bumps while in the up position? If so, what did you do to eliminate the noise? Currently I stuff a small towel in between the arm rest and the back part of the seat and close it... by doing so it take out the extra play and doesn't rattle. I'm looking for a more professional fix.

Thanks in advance.

Default Rattles

Yeah I have that rattle in the rear armrest/rear deck as well as rattles in my two front seats. I'm looking for a better solution other than turning the volume up on the radio.

This fix is secured under the Toyota Extensive Guarantee. This guarantee is essentially for three years or 36,000 miles, whichever happens first, from the vehicle's in-administration date.

Again, why are you posting on a BMW Forum? Not much use to us.

Use white silicon grease.
