MK6 Golf dash rattle doing my head in.....

[Lucas_R]

Hmm after doing some more dismantling tonight i worked my way up to the roof lining and removed the vanity lights under the sun visors. Each light housing has a metal spring clip which helps hold the light in place. The clips are loose and when i shake the housings i can make the clips rattle and they sound very similar to the rattle i am getting.

Some adhesive silicone and temporary tape has been used to secure the spring clips...could these be the rattle perhaps. I'll find out soon enough.

Something else to check if the vanity lights aren't it is the bonnet hinges. I had this problem on a Subaru I had where the hinge was loose. It sounded like it was the dash but was just echoing through.
