rattle inside cabin upon sounds like loose screw

I've a MCS april build which has a metallic rattle similar to a loose screw when I slow down. Brought it to the dealer and they thought it was the speedo needle in the navi which I didn't. Replaced speed but rattle still there. the sound seems to be eminating from the brake pedal area. anyone?

Check around the lower speaker in the driver's door. Putting pressure on the speaker grill seems to stop it. That's where my "loose screw" rattle is. Now if I can only figure out how to get the door panel off.

There is a STICKY in the R56 in the Navigation/ Entertainment forum on R56 speaker replacment. That will show you how to remove the door panel.
