Rear central console creak fix :)

Hello i have decided to make this post for people who may have experienced creaking sounds coming from the rear central vents (when you put your elbow on the armrest like a normal human would not like an infant baby)

What you need:
Felt tape or tesa tape
You might need some trim removing tools

You first need to get the rear vent control panel off ,it is not very easy to do,i have seen people rip it out with ease but it wasnt the same in my case
I have had to use a tool to unclip a few of the clips from their position
I have put tesa tape on the all the clips and of the places where the vent console comes in contact with the middle tunnel,pick might explain better what ive done.....the rear central console with the rear vents is mute now,and the creaking when putting your elbow on the armrest is gone ^_^ and ofc now if you toch the central console it wont make any low quality noises and it is completely silent.

i hope this post helps and if you need any help feel free to ask

photos coming soon


PS:you dont need to disconnect any cables there is enough space
