    Top Centre Air Vent.

    Hi everyone......

    I own a MKV GTI that has a rattle in the grille of the top centre air vent. The dealer, who insisted that it was "re-packed" to fix the problem has instead made it worse!! Does anyone know how to get the grille off without damaging it? Thanks folks.....

      I have a little rattle as well.. I notice if I tap it once or twice it stops.. Either that or sit my wallet or something on top.

          Just be very careful levering it off, mine was quiet pre radio install, now tends to creak and rattle a little now that I've had it off a few times.

              And there's a VW TSB for the issue that you can download here.

              And another DIY thread here.

              Now all I need is some spare time to DO some of these things...
