Default creaking noise from dash

Has anyone had a creaking or rattling sound from the front dash area when going over bumps.? The colder the temperature outside the louder the noise is. I have a 2002 GS430.

Mine was doing that. It was the palstic around the guages. I slid a folded business card to snug it up. It has seemed to have eliminated it. If this fixes it long term, I'll have to figure out a more 'cosmetically pleasing' fix.

Could be the cowl cover on the outside of your windshield. Do a search for "cowl" and check it out. Good luck, squeeky-creaks suck!
