3) button modules around I drive controller. Horse hair brush with 70% isopropyl alcohol to unstick any debris.

4) rattle inside driver door. Remove black plugs at bottom corner of door while open and shift lock linkage away from metal or add some felt/foam. Re insert plugs.

5) silver horizontal trim piece in front of cup holder and cup holder retention pieces. Horse hair brush with 70% isopropyl alcohol to clean crevices.

Most of mine seem to be from a spill that occurred before I owned the car in the I drive area (it’s a cpo). While you’re driving, try holding the center console down with your hand in various places to see if it stops the noise.
I think I also have number 4......where are these plugs at? Do you just pry them open or ? Are they at the corner towards the engine or towards the rear of the car?
