Just did this today, rattle is fixed!!!! WOOOO!
I don't know if anyone else has this issue but for instance, I live in Florida so with the humidity and the AC vents up there hitting my window, I kept getting moisture build up right above the vents. So at the same time, I put tape over the vent area on the grill cover also. No more moisture spots on my windshield now!

Bumping this thread because I was getting exact same problem in my new G42, M240i... the process shown in the first post, solved my issue too.
Also if anyone is willing to know how exactly disassemble the grid covering the speakers easily, this video will show you it step by step. (minute 17:41) |

This issue has been bothering me recently since I started listening to podcasts with hosts with deep voices/bad audio quality.
Ordered the tape and looking forward to doing this as soon as I can. The rattle drives me nuts. Thank you for the write-up.

Just did this! hope this fixed the issue. I pretty much put the felt tape all over the place where I thought the rattling could be coming from, not just the metal prongs and clips. I made sure all the bolts were tightened down as well. a loose bolt/washer may have been the issue but all seemed to be tight. Good thread tho!

OMG IS THIS WHAG IVE BEEN HEARING WHEN I HAVE MY STEREO ALL THE WAY UP??? at first I thought my speaker was blown but was very confused when the “pop” noise that I was hearing when there was a kick drum would magically stop when u out a hand over the speaker cover. Also separately there’s a buzzing noise I’d hear over rough roads. Also @gnr4all is your stereo the hifi or Harmon kardon? Just wanna make sure there’s no differences in the plastics |

Felt Tape Placement
Has anyone done this recently that can help me understand where to put the felt tape? It seems like the pics from the OP have disappeared. I have attached a pic if someone wants to mark it up and repost. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks for this post! As others have mentioned, removing the grill can be a chore as the metal clips BMW uses are very hard to release. Spent about 30-40 minutes with my iFixit tool kit but finally got it off. The felt pads have solved the issue!

Just did this mod, everything was great except 1 of the metal clips fell down into the hole in the dash LOL. I don't hear it so I guess its fine. I supposed I should replace the clip though. anyone have any idea of a part number?
