Have BMW 318 - five years old

Have this very annoying rattle in thr front for a while now - It seems to be coming from inside the dashboard area. Can only hear it when going over uneven ground. Sounds hollow like there is soemthing knocking around inside the dash but am not certain.

Have spent a lot of time checking under the bonnet to see if anything is loose but can't see anything to cause this. Checked shocks and front and rear bushes were changed lately. Nothing in glove box either.

Dismantling the dash is not really a viable option as it would probably create another 10 rattles!

Just wondering if anybody has come across a similar problem as it is v. annoying.

Any help much appreciated
 
Check if something has fallen in the air intake scoop on the bonnett. Even dried leaves can make a racket and it gets amplified like a sound box and is transmitted in to the cabin through the air vents.
