Today I noticed some rattles at the HUB area but I don't have HUB! Pushing that area around seemed to stop the rattling......

I took my A7 into Audi Dallas on Wed. The tech wrote up the following:
  • Client State there is a ticking noise coming from the Driver Side B Pillar.
  • Lower Anchor for Seat belt contacts anchor pin creating noise
  • Test Drove Vehicle - Verified Noise
  • Isolated noise to lower drivers seat belt anchor location.
  • Removed seat belt at anchor and applied felt tape to clasp
  • Reassembled and test drove
  • No further noise

The lower anchor on the driver's seat?

The question is, is it GONE for you?

Yes Drivers seat. Have not driven it much this afternoon since I picked it up but so far I have not heard the noise. Keeping fingers crossed.

That's good to know. I removed the anchor from the driver's seat when I was removing the B-pillar and I thought it wasn't related to the noises that I was hearing.

I have just over 6k on the clock and my rear parcel shelf that attaches to the hatch started making a rattling noise when hitting bumps. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Any fixes? I want to avoid going to the dealer if possible. Thanks.
