When you are experiencing rattling noises in the cabin of your BMW, it can be very annoying and distracting while you are driving. Unfortunately, for the owners of the e90 3 Series Sedan, Coupe, Convertible and Sport Wagons made from 2006-2012, this is a very common issue. The issue usually starts happening when the car reaches 4,000 miles. Some drivers have even noticed the rattling just a few minutes after they drive the car off the dealership lot.
Regardless of the kind of vehicle you drive, even for a top-of-the-line BMW, a small amount of rattling and shaking in the cabin is expected when you are driving down roads that are bumpy or old. When you hear the rattling noises when you are cruising down a freshly paved road, it is sure to drive a person crazy. Some owners of the e90 3 series complain that they hear rattling noises coming from various locations of the cabin including, the navigation dashboard, the driver-side door, the passenger-side door, the armrests, the rear deck area, behind the steering wheel, the seat belt holder, the windows, the rear seats, and a variety of places where the vehicle has trim.
Some causes for the rattling have been linked to engine issues that cause the vehicle to experience hard idling or a rough exhaust. Given the frequency of this issue, many owners feel the issue is a manufacturer defect. Regardless of the cause, the rattling and shaking can be addressed by applying felt or other kinds of vibration-absorbing materials. BMW owners often try to solve this issue themselves, but if you want the best results it is wise to contact an independent BMW repair shop like Bavarian RennSport.
