    Problem with pulling the doorpanel yourself is that you may damage it ... beware !

    Are you sure that it is the door panel that is rattling? There is a problem with 458's where the cloth covering that is in between the speaker and the door panel comes loose and vibrates when the sound system is used. The factory repair is to remove the cloth covering and then repaint the speaker black so you do not see it in the door panel.

    I also thought I had a rattle in my 488. Turns out it was the unclipped seatbelt rattling on the back of the passenger CF race seats. Glad I didn’t take it into the shop. Lol.

    I had the same problem on my 2010 458. Took it to my dealer and this is what they found! The factory forgot to take the protective plastic cover off. Image Unavailable, Please Login

    That's incredible!! If it was after market, I (kind of) could understand, but how can a factory worker forget that! Only at Ferrari!

    I guess so, Idk I had a R8 before this and I know it surely isnt a Ferrari, however I took every inch of that car apart to install exhaust, supercharger, carbon fiber dashboard, carbon interior kit, carbon console.. Was only a $150k car but still just a car and I didnt damage anything, infact I feel like I did better job than dealership.

    Anyways I found a manual off of a member on here and I will be removing this myself and will post back to all what I find and how the work goes. I will be doing it this coming week

    This is NOT a solicitation for my business. This is one F Chatter trying to help another F Chatter take his door apart.
