I have owned my 2007 IS 350 for about a month now and I have been pulling my hair out with all these rattles. I think there are 3 areas so far...

1. Rattle from the sliding cover over the ash tray
2. Glove compartment
3. Rear view mirror

Does anyone have similar experiences? If so, anyway I can resolve these rattle issues?

Also, is there a list of TSIBs applicable for my car?

1. i took out my ashtray so i havent noticed anything from that part....
2. my glove is okay ... do you have loose items flying around inside ?
3. haha this one is the easiest to explain... =P LOUD MUSIKK

i got rattles from my passenger side cabin... iono what that is... usually my music is loud enough to cover all these rattles hah

All right, I will try taking out the ash tray since I don't smoke. As far the glove box, nothing in there that is loose. Loud music? Hmm, any other solutions?

There's a TSIB for dash rattles, just take it to your dealer and complain. Make sure you can replicate the problem. Your car must be under warranty of course to have them done free of charge.

My dash only rattles when it's cold. When the interior warms & expands the rattles go away. Only one for me that is pissn me off is, I think my passenger side mirror. That one is gettn to me. I think my puddle light is loose & the mirror it self.

Just got my 07 back from dealer. Got dash rattles, mirror vibration fixed (replaced) under warranty. They found dash rattle in three different spots and they placed extra insulation, changed clips to rubberized ones, and pretty much rebuilt dash. They also found that front shock was rattling and changed that too. Now absolutely quiet, no rattles. Thanks Lexus of Englewood!

Yep there are tsb's for dash rattle and the vibration on rear view mirror.

All right, I am going to take it in as my car is under warranty. Any dealers in So Cali someone can recommend? Hopefully they will give me a loaner.

hey senjinro. I had the same rattling problem with my dash and my rear view mirror was shaking exessively with the sun roof open. Took my car to lexus of westminster and got it taken care of. Charlie was my service advisor and he took good care of me. Plus it took 3 days n he gave me a loaner for those days. Make sure you arrive early so there are loaner cars for you. Reason it took so long was cause they had to replace the rear view mirror n it took 2 days to get it in. Hope you get everything taken care of.

Thanks for the posts. Also, I just noticed today that whenever I reverse down my driveway there is a somewhat loud "pop" sound from right rear (i think) when going over where the driveway meets the street (basically, an uneven transition). I thought it was something in my trunk, but nothing moved back there. Anyone experience the same thing?

i've been chasing something similar for a while. mine seems to be from the sunroof - when going over bumps if i hold the rear part of the sunroof it doesnt make the noise. for a while i thought it was passenger door, then rear, finally figured it out.

I've got the same problem and finally figured out it's my sunroof. When I hold it firmly anywhere on the right side it doesn't rattle. Wish I would've figured this out and the instrument cluster rattle before i run out of the factory warranty.
