| There seems to be all kinds of rattles comming from the front passenger side of my 2004 MDX. When ever I go over a bump or a small crack on the road....or what ever it may be, there is a rattle that drives me nuts when i drive. :3: WTF could this sound be!!? it seems like its comming from inside the glove compartment, since when i drive with the glove comp. open- the rattle is no longer there. Has anyone ever had this prob. with their MDX or know how to fix it? Thanx in advance.!!! |

Does the glove box not close all the way? Is it banging against the latch since it isn't closing tight? Just a thought. |

I have been fooled several times by those packs of gum that come in blister packages with foil backs. A little vibration can cause those little pieces of open foil to make a lot of racket when bent against something that can move around even a little.
Only other thing I can think of is to make sure you're not missing the little bumper nipples along the edge of each side of the door toward the top. Look for a recessed edge on the other side of the compartment portion of the door. |

| Hmmm the glove box closes all the way. I used to work at Acura, and I have not noticed this kind of noise from the X. It sounds like a very cheap plasticy sound rattling, could it be some of the wiring behind the glove box. -I looked inside the glove box and saw lot of plastic wires back there- I guess I should take it to the dealership and let them fix it? but that will take alot of time im guessing. Hmm. |

I recently started to notice the same kind of noise around the glove compartment.
When I leave it open, it does not make the noise.
When I close it, it seems like there is a little bit of play.
I'm not sure if this is because I have too much stuff in it...
It sure is annoying....the older the X gets, the more noise it produces... |

| My X (2000 miles) has the same glove comp. rattle even when it is empty. |

My 2002 does the same thing. Doesn't rattle when open, doesn't rattle if I push against the glove box door.
48,000 miles and I just went to the dealer 2 weeks ago to have them look at the last few warranty issues. That, by the way, was a waste of time. The LOUD periodic clunk in the right rear door - "we road tested it and didn't hear anything" and of course the rear hubs that are 100% rusted - "that's normal" .. normal for what??? Gotta love that answer. I love how when something is wrong on ALL models, it's dismissed as normal. |

| I have the same noise in my 01, when i brought it to the dealer they explained that the noise is from the clip that the latch attathes to idt appears to have sagged a little and the noise is "normal". They were not interested in fixing the problem.:3: |
