I purchased my xB on 3/25 ('06 auto). Overall I am very happy with the performance. Having driven it for almost a week, I have noticed two buzzes in the interior that are probably related to engine/exhaust vibration. Just want to check and see if anybody else is has heard these:

1. As the box spins up to 2000/2100 RPMs, I hear a vibration from the rear, directly behind me or maybe to the left (driver's seat).

2. At highway speeds, I hear a smaller vibration ot a faint creak from the dash, to the right of the driver. Is this the speedo buzz? If so, I will get some felt or fleece. If I was guessing, it sounds like it is coming from the defroster vent on the right side. If so, I will get some felt or fleece.

Thanks for any help the forum can provide. Today will be the first warm day in NC since I got it, so the interior may expand a bit today and things may pop into place. We'll see.

Not sure about the buzz behind you but up front it is possible it is your grill. Alot of people had that buzzing.

Yup we all have some type of buzz or rattles in our cars, mine comes from the passenger door and i have heard of lots of other locations these sound come from. So dont worry your not the only one.

I thought I had rattling problems too until i realized I had something in the glove compartment that was vibrating against the the walls of it. Just double check that, plus your ash/coin tray, the pockets on the sides of your doors, etc.

I know, common sense, but it's still a good thing to check for.
