It is never pleasurable to find out a noise you don’t know anything about and comes from your car. So what if you discern a noise that persists in the cabin of your Mini Mini? It is highly plausible that this is a minor problem, but before being sure of that, it is better to do some checks. Our team has written this article to help you identify and adjust this cabin noise. First, we will look at those that come from the dashboard, then noises from the cabin, the doors, and at last the plastic noises on Mini Mini that show up when it is hot.
Reasons that can cause noise in the passenger cabin of your Mini Mini
I experience plastic rattling noises on the dashboard Mini Mini
One of the plausible elements that can generate a plastic rattling noise in your Mini Mini is that your dashboard, after an intervention or vibrations suffered during its lifetime, it may have fasteners that have come loose or unscrewed. Try to identify the particular place of this plastic rattling noise on Mini Mini and using your vehicle’s technical manual try to check the tightness of all the screws concerned. Otherwise take your vehicle to your auto mechanic.
I discern noises in the cabin Mini Mini
The second most common possibility of a cabin noise in your Mini Mini is that some parts that come apart may be loose, either because of too frequent disassembly that would have reduced the holding between these parts, or because of vibrations. Think about verifying your ceiling light which is sometimes the reason of a cabin noise on Mini Mini. Otherwise open your doors, those closest to the origin of the noise and check all the openings, covers that are located there, some may have moved and therefore vibrate while driving. Usually putting them back in place or gluing them is enough to fix the problem.
I perceive door noises on my Mini Mini
If you feel a plastic noise on the doors of your Mini Mini, it is plausible that it is one of your door trim fasteners that is damaged, or a screw from an internal mechanism of the glass for example or the loudspeaker that has unscrewed and therefore generates the part in question to rub against the door interior. Feel free to take apart your door trim to find the origin of this plastic door noise on Mini Mini. For more information on door noises on Mini Mini, feel free to read this article.
I find out a cabin noise when hot Mini Mini
If, on the other hand, you experience cabin noises in your Mini Mini when summer comes or when the outside temperature is warm, it is unfortunately rational that this syndrome manifests itself more during these cycles. Indeed, plastic being a rather flexible material will expand with heat and will therefore much more easily rub on other plastic or metal parts, this is what will induce cabin noises when hot on your Mini Mini. It is difficult to cure this problem, you can always look for the exact source of the noise, and try to put foams or tape between the expanding parts to limit their noise from their expansion.
