Anyone get this fixed? I picked up my A6 yesterday and noticed the same rattling after only a few hours. It stops if you put pressure on the driver armrest. Driving me nuts on my brand new car!

I only hear the buzzing when I put my arm on the armrest. It is definitely there...

I had this in both front doors. I sprayed WD40 generously at the area where the door card meets the door frame and the noise vanished. Worth a try!

I fiddled around the door and it's definitely the LED strip on mine.

The dealer fixed mine last month. There's a TSB and they install some felt strips behind the door panel...No more rattle!!!

I have the same rattle. Took my A6 Prestige to the dealer last week and asked them to diagnose and fix it. They took the door apart, said they found nothing....and now its worse.
