RJC 1

Ready to purchase a new Q7, dealer allowed us to try it for a couple of days. The vehicle is quite nice a Glacier/black prestige with every option sans B&O and adjustable suspension.


Unfortunately we noticed an annoying loose plastic sounding rattle while going over bumps coming from inside the console under the back portion of the arm rests where the hinge goes down into (it's easily replicated by lifting the arm rests and moderately hitting either side). Anyone have this or know of the fix? The last thing we want is to have the entire console removed to fix this rattle...otherwise it's appears to be a tight solid vehicle. Hoping it's a simple solution.


I'll post pics if we decide to take it and thanks for any insight.

I found this which appears to be the same issue:


Rattling Armrest

In the event anyone gets this rattle, the cause was the counter-weights in the armrests.
