Default Speaker/door rattle?

Does anyone else have door rattling in front doors? I've already taken to dealer and they said solved the issue, but they didn't seem to do anything. It's a light but definite rattle in the door assembly. From what I can hear, it seems the the B9 has pretty hollow doors that have lots of loose components. The rattling was definitely noticeable when I did a bass only test and moved the balance to the front speakers.

4:00 minute mark you can see there's little to no insulation/foam around many of the loose components.

I had a rattle on my passenger door. I just took it in for and they fixed it. They found a broken clip inside.

I already took mine in and the same exact sound remained after I picked it up after 4 days. Which makes it seem like they didn't even do anything.. I guess this is fault of the dealer but dealers/techs aren't as keen on our cars as us, they simply don't care as much as we do it seems. I'll have to tell them again at the 10k and hope they try harder.

Make sure you state your dissatisfaction when you conduct the review for Audi of America/dealership. I always write a thoughtful detailed review when I am asked for a survey of dealer performance. If you are not happy with your results make your opinion known.

I seem to have rattles throughout the car that come and go. The front passenger door was rattling quite a bit the other day. There is also a rattle coming from the rear of the car. The dealer said they fixed it but I didn't notice any improvement.

Mine also wrote that they fixed it, but it clearly is the same sounds since we sit in ours every day. The rear subwoofer shelf rattle is also a common one I've read
