I have am a couple months and 6500 miles into having my GX550 Premium Plus. Love most everything about it so far with one exception. When I am at slower speeds (under 35 mph) and slowly accelerate with RPM in the 1500 range, I have a rattle in the cabin. I cannot find the source but don't think it is the door like others have experienced. Not sure if dash or engine/transmission but seems center front area of cabin. Once I get closer to 2000 RPM, it is no more and I don't hear it at higher speeds. Doesn't matter if engine is warm of cold. Has anyone else experienced this and if so, what was the source? Thanks.
 
Open your sun roof cover and listen up there. I have one there myself.
No, wasn't the source but appreciate the suggestion. Did have a touchless car wash experience where the dang thing was turned too high on the roof sprayer and blasted right through the seals on the sunroof. Had a discussion with site manager on that. Rattle was there before that experience too.
 
Wife just identified mine above rear passenger head, in the ceiling, on 2nd row. 🙄
Had wife ride with me to check. We both agree seems to be forward area of cabin. Again, only with speeds under 35 mph and in that RPM range as I slowly accelerate.
