I was hoping someone could have uploaded an audio file for the dash rattle by now.

Hi, does anyone have a picture of said airbag bracket and know if its an easy fix or is a trip to a dealer required?

Dash removal is the tricky part. You'll end up with more rattles than you started with when trim clips get broken.

Hi all still months on and not got anywhere with this rattle. Took it to my local main dealer who told me it was fixed by replacing the nearest A pillar trim but yes you guess it still rattling away on the way home after picking it up from the dealer and getting worse and even more annoying. It’s going back into the dealer tomorrow and I’ve told them to keep it until it’s fixed. I’ve got loads of videos showing the rattle but it won’t let me upload them on here does anyone know how ?

I don’t have you tube so not sure how to upload it to there ? If anyone knows how to send a link to the videos let me know and i will happily upload them on here. Anyway you know I said I’ve told my main dealer to keep it until this dash rattle is fixed ... well it’s been in today for the 5th time and they are now telling me it’s the high pressure fuel pump and that they have compared it to another Puma and it’s a “normal characteristic” of the car so see how you go. I told them it’s not normal but they just had me on my way and didn’t seem interested in fixing it. Not sure how to approach it when I will have to go back for a 6th time or where to go from here ?
