F30 Rattle Sound

kavinskyys · 09-23-2022, 07:09 AM

Hello,

Like the description says, i found a rattle sound at the passenger side (left steering wheel) in a 330e from 2018.
The rattle appears at the slights uneven pavement.
Most of my conduction luckily are in electric mode, so it drives-me crazy.

I already take the glove compartment out to check.
It appears to come from the dashboard.

Any idea would be much appreciated.

I had a similar rattle over bumps in my F30 and it turned out to be the strut rod bushing.

Don’t confuse this with the front struts themselves. The strut rod is more like a stabilizer for the bottom of the strut, and it has a large bushing on the end.
