Let me ask you a serious question; go look at your dash in daylight, check right in the center of the dash all the way closest to the windshield. Does a small warp appear?
I had this same thing done, they even asked me to sign off on it and I didn't even know what I was signing off on but "IT WORKED!" Totally silent! All rattles were gone. The only thing I noticed was this new tiny warp in the dash next to the windshield dead center.
Yes I suppose this could be a TSB replacement but if it is they really must have changed it a lot.
I called my dealer right after they did this and told them "this was the fix" and they should spread the word. They actually fixed it, I was so happy!

B.
how long ago did you get the dash replaced?

this tsb came out in mid 2008.

Dang.... I had the windshield clip replaced and the dash still rattles, unless they didn't do them. Im just really getting sick and tired of the dash rattles. I've had the car for just over 2 months now and seriously considering getting rid of it just for that reason and going BMW 5 series. Thing is, Im REALLY happy with everything else on the GS.

sometimes I feel the same way. I love my car but have been feeling like I have had to many issue with it. Its nothing thats going to leave me stranded in a parking lot but it is something that keeps me taking the car into the dealership. I am getting a little tired

I agree, the GS is almost like a German car, a lot of little things that need fixing.

I8ABMR,
I also live in AZ - where do you take your GS, and who is the service advisor?
Thanks
