Default Noises: rattle and...

After 10000km I love my x308 btu there a several noises on 3 category roads which aren't my taste.

One was from the front deflettor pof the sunroof, the original anti-fibration foam was gone. But the inner ceeling of the sunroof makes noise, how to fix?

From the right side of the passengers door panel is some noise...

What are the tipical spots of noise in theis cars and what to do about them?

Best Pagodino

I would say the wonderful thing about "these cars" is that they have no typical noises except maybe that of failing tensioners!

Well, I guess some of us are just more critical than others. I find the stereo to be a great rattle solver.
A Mercedes won't work for me since I don't wear a hat.
