Centre Console Rattle

Does anyone have an annoying rattle coming from the lid of the central armrest? If so how did you fix it?

I have a few I am trying to chase down. Annoying in a new car, especially since they have been around since new.

I actually had the center console lid rattle noise that the OP mentioned. Not sure if it's the same rattle, but on mine, I simply closed the lid HARD a few times and it went away.

I currently have 3 unresolved rattles that I have not been able to resolve on my own:

high-pitch metallic creaking sound from the left suspension.(sounds like a metal wind chime)

noise when electronic parking brake engages/disengages. the dealer actually replaced the parking brake module a few months ago. the noise came back last month.

door black plastic frame rubbing noise when it's brass monkeys outside(some members have said WD40 or other lubricants cured this, but I haven't gotten around to trying yet)

I had an interior plastic trim-type rattle that seemed to start out of nowhere. After repeated opening and shutting of doors, as well as the front and rear consoles, I finally "fixed" it by retracting and laying one of rear seat belts flat again. I had had rear seat passengers, and I think that the light little seat belt buckle was clanking against some other piece of trim, even though it appeared taut.

I had a rattle in the centre console. Turns out it was the hinge for the cover which lifts. The dealer added some padding in an area I couldn't see and it has been fine ever since.
