How do I fix this?

[Spiffav8]

I’ve got the most annoying rattle and I have no idea how to fix it. The button for the glove box goes crazy at certain RPM and it drives me nuts. This might be a long shot but has anyone come across this and found a fix?

I'm open to ideas on how to fix it if there's not a sure fire way of solving the issue.

Thanks in advance!

can you get some grease into the lock

Try a few small pieces of foam weather stripping in the corners. It should keep the door snug.

It's not the door. It's the button that opens the door. Little bastard makes one heck of racket.

Maybe. I'll give it a try, make a mess and see what happens.

Thanks for the help.

It's in the front. It's the actual button you push to open the glove box.

Just got home from a movie charter. Flew Ft. Lauderdale, Bogota, Lima, Rio, Trinidad, Toronto, New York. Just getting things done around the house. I'll call you tomorrow.

and I got it! 16 hours straight in that thing. Good thing they had plenty of coffee on board.

Looks like the Lima operation is going to rock! Can't wait to start flying those trips. 1st class treatment for the crews all the way!
