I noticed few annoying rattles when on cobblestone:
- When there is bottle in the bottle holder in the middle, the plastic adjusters vibrate badly. Goes away mostly when I remove the bottle.
- Rattle from the driver's door but couldn't figure out where it's coming from. Maybe the speaker grill?!
- The seatbelt on the passenger side.

Have you noticed any bad vibes yourself? 😅

Definitely the seatbelt passenger side, need to adjust the clip slightly so it doesn't rattle when no passenger.

I can’t take the noise on the seatbelt banging against the side door.. you would think at $100 k you would have stuff like this figured out.. and I have asked my dealer three times to address… no response …

It is addressed in the manual

Securing seat belt for passenger seat

  1. If the passenger seat is unoccupied, the belt tongue can be placed near the belt outlet on the B-pillar trim panel to avoid contact noise with the plastic slider A (Fig. 2).

Passenger side seatbelt noise banging everywhere there is annoying since day 1. But I temporarily eliminate the noise. Just fasten the seatbelt all the time with or without passenger and it works no more noise.

Easier to do what jh6284 points out above. Per the manual the belt already comes with a slider to stop the noise.

That’s kind of hilarious they have that in the manual.. should not even be an issue, but at least it’s an easy fix. I ordered a few more of those clips for the remaining seatbelts just in case.
