Phantom Rattle

I'm relatively new to Mini. Got my 16 CM in October as a demo with 7000 miles on it and full warranties. This forum has been very helpful.

Love the car so far, but the one annoying thing has been this phantom rattle that shows up at greater than 55-60mph, and gets worse as you get faster. Sounds like its under the dash in front of the driver.

Just wondering if this is a common one, and maybe an easy DIY fix. Next time in the dealer, I'm going to ask them to go out and go fast to notice it.

You should go for a drive with the tech or shop foreman so you don't waste a visit on couldn't duplicate issue results.

Our CM is so noisy on the highway that I couldn't tell you about a specific rattle.
