SOLUTION to the rattle in the Center Speaker

Hi everyone,

I was getting an ugly rattle on the Center Speaker, the one in the middle of the dashboard....

Googling a bit, I easily found that this has been a common issue also in other G-series, and that the solution is super easy...

I share here the thread for the 3-series G20 with pics and instructions , see first post.

Hope this helps some other G42 colleagues here...

PS. If anyone needs help on how to disassemble the speaker cover, you can use this video (minute 17:41), super easy with the correct utils:

Awesome! Thank you for posting this! I removed the cover and applied the felt tape. Will be driving tonight to see if it still has that buzzing noise and will report back by tomorrow!

Update! Been driving for a couple days and haven't heard a rattle after doing this fix! Very happy with the results!
