Default Anyone know of a TSB for a dash creak ??

I have been hearing a creak in the dash all the time (hot or cold weather, am or pm), it sounds likea harness of sorts or perhaps two pieces of plastic rubbing. It is not a snap crackle or pop kind of sound, it is a low grumble kind of a creak sound....like a door squeak just a lower pitch...it seems to happen with any tilting of the car as in acceleration or deceleration. It seems to be deep in the anterior part of the driver side dash. Pressing on the top of the dash makes no diference. I first thought it may be a steering component but then realized it is not dependent on the steering wheel at all. I am not taking it in unless it becomes much worse (been there, done that with the last GS), problem is I cant look and feel below the dash while driving.....It is not from the speakers, their grills or the windshield tick...anyone else have this issue or seen a TSb for it, Thanks in advance.

Update.....it seems my tachometer has gone bad, when i took it in, the tech heard it and the next day I received a call stating it is the instrument cluster, particularly the tach gauge that is making the gear rattling sound. They actually can test the tech movement with the car off via diagnostics program......wild. I also had the dash windshield tapping sound, so they went to cut the pins and my windshield cracked ....so a new windshield got put on. I am not sure what to think until i get the car back, oh well, its all good.
