Rattle/Buzz behind Traction control button?

[Mr. Mac]

I've noticed after 175 miles of ownership a plastic on plastic rattle/buzz what seems to be behind the traction control button. If you put pressure on the outer rim of the button while driving it goes away. Also goes away sometimes on it's on when the Z is warmed up inside.

Was this common in the 370s? Anyone know of a simple fix without digging into the dash or wasting precious hours of my life at a dealership?

OMG YES! I have this exact same rattle/buzz in that exact same location, and it's driving my OCD flippin' CRAZY! And yes, simply pressing dash material in that area thankfully does make the noise go away, but unfortunately only temporarily before it comes back again. Totally unacceptable on a vehicle of this expense IMO, and I too am hesitant about having dealer go tearing into it. I'll do the weatherstrip trick (thanks BTW) as a band-aid for now until I have time to explore further and fix it the right way with a more permanent solution.

I would try the foam between the gap of the trim in a previous post I made. I still hear some noise on super bumpy roads. Waiting to see if anyone has better ideas.

Sticking a piece of foam in the steering column has further fixed this issue for me.

Now I am having some sort of buzzing noise in the trunk area when I hit the throttle hard. Anyone have something similar and were able to isolate?

I thought it might be the trunk cover, which I removed. Also removed cargo net, first aid kit, cargo net, and manual. Something is rubbing against something else causing a distinctive buzzing noise at certain RPM.
