Mines fine. They'll have to tear your dash all apart.

Hopefully they will get everything back together and you won't have more problems........

Somebody in the recent past posted some information about a TSB for this very problem...but they did not indicate the TSB number...

HEY...that reminds me...for those of us that are PAYING members of the forum...shouldn't we be getting access tot he TSB's? WHERE'd they go?

Mine was very noisy and there was in fact a TSB performed by my local dealer and the rattles are gone. There are other rattles and squeaks that I'm working on.... never had these issues with any of my other Toyotas.

Anyway in may case the dash was put back together properly and everything worked fine and none on the squeaks come from the dash.

For everyone that has a rattle in the front dash, mostly when the car is cold. There is a TSB out for this but I don't know the number. Apparently Toyota used the wrong thickness of insulation under the dash. The service bulletin recommends replacement which means removing the dash , replacing the insulation and re-assembly, per my dealer a 6 hour job. It was done on my Camry and the rattle is gone.
