I've been reading a lot about silencing the car interior and i found some very interesting stuff.
When was the last time you checked your weather strip?
Cleaning the weather strip and keeping it coated with silicone spray will keep most of the road noise and air out and might prevent your inside trim from rattling.
Try it first its a very inexpensive fix and a good preventive maintenance after cleaning your car.

i have the problem too but mine is coming form the passenger side though. but i cant try the fix till i get my car back from the shop lol...

actually if you lay a kitchen mat/ thin rubber mat inside your glove box or cup holder and inside your cubby hole in the dash it will help eliminate the sound that might be coming from those areas

well remove all the items in those area first then test drive if theres less noise then it might help

yeah i hate that glove box it amplifies the sound too much lol so i end up buying a little pouch and put everything in it then throw it inside my glove box

im trying to find the stuff they used to line the inside of the VW. they used it on the door, glove box and stuff holder on the door

ILMV i told the tech about that and he gave me a crazy look lol but after a while of driving it just went away for some odd reason well i guess i can hear the rattle louder than the ticks coming from the middle vents lol... what i suspected was the pipes inside the cowl. i shook it before i dont know if it helped it cure it self hahaha...
