Passenger door cubby rattles?
Noob here, just got an E92 last month and loving it but there is a really annoying rattle coming from the passenger door.
It stops if I pull the door cubby tray out, but if I close it the rattle returns. Anyone know how to fix that? |

It's a long shot, but check the trim piece. I couldn't tell where mine was coming from and it turned out the trim was loose.

Had the same thing start happening on my 2011.75 about 2 years back. Ended up having the dealer take care of it under warranty, they told me there was some kind of repair kit for it. Not sure what it consisted of, but the rattle is extremely faint now if it's even still there at all.

Everything rattles in our cars unfortunately. The best thing is when the rattle happens intermittently and you have no idea why.

I can give you one quick fix. Place something slim and of reasonable mass inside the door pocket. Doing this changes the harmonic resonance of the pocket. Examples could include: small umbrella, a book, a laptop battery (in order of increasing mass). Experiment with different items (and weights). In this case the small but heavy items act as a harmonic damper to overcome the rattling. Yeah, I know it’s a tiny bit of extra weight but it beats taking the door card off in my book, but that’s just me..
