I have heard that the rattle I hear when I start my 23 cold is something that all or most 392's have and there is no fix. Is there any truth to this? I was told the TRX has the same issue and it is the insulation hitting the dash. I am not sure what to believe but it drives me nuts every time I start it up and hear that rattle buzzing noise. Anyone have any info? Thanks

I had a rattle in my dash that took forever to find, it was a piece of plastic that was between the AC vent and the firewall. It's above and to the right of the gauge cluster. I used the fuzzy side of Velcro and some pieces of soft foam to isolate it.

Well, if it’s any consolation the boring Lexus we got at home does the same thing…

(A) it’s a Lexus and they’re supposed to be “above this”
(B) it’s a great appliance otherwise
(C) IT’S A FREAKING EV THAT HAS A DASH RATTLE!!!

I should’ve pushed harder to convince the wife that a 392 was the only family care we need vs our current Lexus+Sahara combo… 🤣
