My dash has developed a squeak or two when going over bumps. Probably just some loose fasteners at the bulkhead. I don't suppose that any of them are (reasonably) easy to access?

spray it selectively with silicone lubricant to see where it (or them) are coming from ,,,a regular squeak is where the dash joins the centre console ...plastic against plastic

sometimes when the 4 bolts (2 each end) that hold the main part of the dash in are over tightned they can sqeek from there.

Are these bolts easy to get to, or are they buried deep withing the guts of the dash?buster wrote:sometimes when the 4 bolts (2 each end) that hold the main part of the dash in are over tightned they can sqeek from there.

if you open the glove box and take out the upper pannel,you can see the 2 bolts to the far left on the side.
On the drivers side i think you can access them by removing the panel below the steering wheel and get to them from underneith.
