Hi all.

I was getting a rather annoying tapping / creaking noise going over bump from the passenger side dash area. After further inspection I noticed that the finisher panel under the glove compartment of the passenger foot-well has a lot of give when pushed up. There's a metal loop in the back of the foot well that goes through the panel way in the back. I stuffed a paper towel in it to lessen the slack of the panel and voila! No more noise.

Is there something missing that's supposed to fit in the hook to secure the panel from movement? Thanks!

 

take it to dealer.

 

Why? If it's something simple I'd rather do it myself, no?

 

Can you please describe the metal hook in more detail? What is the approximate dimension of the hook and where exactly is it located?

A picture would be much better.

I do get an intermittent ticking sound from passenger side dash as well depending on the road surface.

Thanks.

 

That metal ring attaches to the backside of the glove box on the left side

 

I also have a 2013 coupe which has developed the same annoying noise. It actually sounds a little like the directional flasher clicking. I will go outside now to see if I can locate what you are talking about. A picture would, in fact, be helpful.
I am going to mention it at my first oil change at the dealership, but I don't have much hope that they will 1) actually hear it and 2) be able to fix it.

Okay I found it. That was a pretty good verbal description of what I was looking for. I don't think that's MY problem, but time will tell. I'll let you know.

 

there's actually a plastic one as well to the left of the metal one in the center. I actually pulled the PC down and put some weather stripping under the round plastic surface and then use some foam to take up the slack in the loops. now it's hunky dory. now except for a few clicks here and there from the plastics flexing to the heat, which is typical in every car, the ride is quiet as can be. very pleased actually.
Now if Infiniti would up the QC in other areas ...
