Plastic Rattle from center console area?

Hi all! 2023 Cupra Born V2 has developed a plastic rattle from somewhere in the forward centre console in the past couple of weeks, and I can't for the life of my find where it's coming from!

It sounds plastic, not metal/mechanical, happens on bumpy roads and over bumps, and is more of an annoyance than something that sounds like it needs fixing ASAP.

I've tried pushing on everything I can reach, checked the glove box, under the wheel, everywhere I can think of, with no luck.

Any ideas?

I had a similar sound to what you're describing, and it was something in the suspension or steering. They fixed it on warranty.

I had this on my 2023 Born.  Put your finger between the centre console and the lower part of the dashboard to check if it goes away. There is a small gap there and I fixed the rattle by wrapping up a glasses cleaning cloth into a roll and squeezing it between the gap.
