Does anyone know how to remove the upper dashboard on the MS?
I've had the car into service twice now (6 months ownership) to deal with a loud and annoying creak in the upper passenger side of the dash (among other things), and it just came back again. I've scheduled yet another service appointment but they're so booked its not until the end of the month. I'd rather look into fixing it myself at this point than waste any more time dealing with the SCs. I love this car but it seems awfully noisy, even compared to my wife's Leaf. My heart sank a little the last time I had it in (for tire rotation, and the dash fix... again.) as I drove in a loaner with a VIN 10k higher than mine that was just as noisy with creaks and rattles as my car is. I had hoped Tesla would get a handle on these issues, but I really think they're just not there yet. Two different SCs have tried to fix this issue and both times it came back. They did manage to fix a loud rattle in the passenger door (loose speaker harness) but now the wire grill that covers the speaker has come loose and frequently rattles as well. Worse yet, they seem to have introduced the dreaded Pano roof creak with their preemptive "fix" the last time I had the car in. All in all I'm pretty fed up with the whole thing.
