Hi, i have 2024 phase 1 MG4 luxury. At bumpy road i have some plastic noises from the central mirror and dashboard. Also from passenger door trim. Everyone else have this?
 
Yes! - you're not driving a VW (my cars for the past 25 yrs - which dont squeak), your more at a Stellantis level, our MG4 (now at 20k miles) does squeak in the cabin, but some things go away e.g. a slight knock at the rear going over speed bumps.
 
Might be sunglasses in the sunglasses holder?

My VW had a rattle in its near-side A frame all its life. Maybe I should have gone to the dealer about it, but it seemed such a petty thing to complain about. My MG4 is actually quieter than my Golf was.
 
There are 3 definite areas which can be noisy. Sunglasses holder, put your glasses in a soft cloth or soft cloth holder. Passenger air vents behind the glove box, try putting foam around the outlets where they touch the panel or better still remove the panel and soundproof it. Rear hatch, put a layer of insulation tape around the fixed part of the latch, the near vertical part which is closest to you when you open the hatch. Other than that it's pretty quiet. ??

Mine is only 3100 miles. BTW I have Stellantis car (well kind of, its a RAM) no squeaks at that car. Noises from the rear I have when I go over a curb. Like old car noises.

Nothing at sunglasses holder. Maybe I will go to the dealer becuse when I turn I have noise from the driver door like a coin is moving free behind the trim.

I heard about the the passenger legs air vents, I will check.
 
Yesterday I noticed a rattle from the seat belt buckles at the rear when they are fastened : the rear right passenger one being the noisiest.
It’s as if the latch is too loose and it clangs whenever going over bumps.
Will mention it at the service in case there’s a fix.
