Default Rattling and squeaking noise

Hello
I addition of the Adaptative Drive Assist system issues I already reported here I now have an increasing amount of rattling squeaking noises coming from the central area of the dashboard.
It seems located around the two screens and she pressing on their frames the noises seem to reduce.
Has anyone had the same time of experience and do you know how Audi deals with such issues on a 3 to 4 months old car, please?

Re squeaking noises:

No, I have not had these yet. Surprisingly if you look at the T&Cs of our warranty coverage, there is no 1 year coverage for squeaks and rattles unlike other German carmakers which is odd. That said it should be covered and it will involve them troubleshooting and such. Be prepared to have things taken apart. Unfortunate, but that's life.

Personally I would defer you to try and take things apart (Slowly) while following instructions.

Here is the guide to take everything apart: https://www.scribd.com/document/4175...-Parts-Removal

To so at your own risk! Anyways, look around, do your research in the doc above, and see if you can figure it out yourself. Better you than some mechanic making $20/hour.....

Thank you for your response.

The car is now booked for some work at the end of the month as I certainly don't want to take the risk of takings things apart myself, so let's see what they can do!
