Default Cockpit noise

Ok guys... I'm quite fresh here and i'd like to immediately ask you something
My 2015 F-Type S coupe has a very annoying noise coming from the upper left part of the cockpit... something like a plastic box hitting something harder inside the cockpit. I really don't know how to explain and i tried to search on this site without success... Does anyone have the same issue?
It happens when the road isn't perfect... very annoying especially considering that the quality of the interiors and squeak/rattle are not so bad...
Hope you can help me
Thank you!

Are you sure it's from inside your cockpit? Try to open the door while driving and stick your head outside. I had an irritating sound - like pebbles dropping on plastic or rattle. I made a recording so you can see if it seems like yours. My postings ended up somewhere in the middle of this thread https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/f...-cover-148948/ and there is also a description of the solution to my problem.

Yours may be different, but I thought I'd mention in case yours is the same thing. Cheers.

I have a convertible, but I have had similar things from time to time, I haven't solved all of them but one simple one which can happen is that with the performance seats there is a strap with a snap connector which guides the seatbelt on the top outer part of the seat. If that snap is not clicked closed, the metal parts of the strap rattle together.

Thanks everybody...
I'm pretty sure it comes from inside; more precisely from the rear part of the dashboard... it happens every time I drive on a bumpy road. Just called my Jag dealer... hopefully next thursday they fix the problem!
