Apart from the VDC screw that could be loose, do you guys have this problem or know what else could cause the rattling? Thanks!

I thought my steering wheel area was rattling as well till I placed my hand on the dash just in front of the gauge pod. Rattle disappeared.
I took the car in and complained about the rattle and the service guy knew right away what the problem was: wiring harness under the dash not properly attached. Well, maybe so and he said it was fixed, but every so often the rattle returns. I think because the dash is made up of several pieces rather than just one, the pieces rub together and create the rattle (or is it really a "buzz?").
Someone on one of the forums mentioned poking some weather stripping, or something, in between the cracks of the dash to get rid of the sound. I haven't tried that yet...but I might if the sound returns again.
