Has anyone with an 2001-2004 Civic had any noise coming from the passenger
side dashboard vent area? Have you been able to stop the noise? I have my
dash disassembled and with the vent out of the car, there is no rattle.
When i put it back in, the rattle comes back. I have put extra foam
cushioning in the joint between the vent supply lines and the vent, but it
hasnt helped. Does anyone really know what exactly creates that noise?

tia,
Tom

I have a 2002 Civic, and have found that both of the inner windshield pillar
trim panels (on the "A Pillar") buzz and rattle. I've tried forcing some
felt into the lower joint where they meet the dashboard, to no avail. I'm
going to try some RTV or clear silicone as soon as the weather warms up
enough to play outside.
