So, I have recently noticed these squeaking noises in the cabin under/in the dash. Tried to do a search on the forum with no success. It seems like the creeks and squeaks go away after the car warms up. (sounds like plastic rubbing together).

Also, the squeaks only happen when the car is moving over the road. Its almost like the dash is designed to not have any give and something is giving. The post below is good, but doesn't get to the answer. But, thanks anyway.

Any assistance on this problem would be very welcomed. I don't yet want to take it to the dealer until I know more.

This is the trouble with plastic interior panels that snap together...they squeak, rattle, buzz, moan, and groan.

To minimize this you can apply a foam tape to the edges of all the panels and around attachment points. It will help...but then it makes every "new **** and moan" blatantly obvious...which is at least slightly irritating. (I hate rattles, buzzes, etc...and have taken 1/2 my interior apart to minimize....its only a matter of time before I remove everything.

I know toyota has a part that consists of different adhesive foams...but I'm not sure if Nissan does this as well. I would rather do it myself than trust the morons here...as taking the panels off can create new noises.

a. Take the dash apart.
b. Wrap stuff with thin foam padding.
c. Put the dash back together.

You will end up with twice as many squeaks as then you started. Really.
