Anyone have any ideas as to what causes this annoying popping sort of sound when I drive over small bumps in the road? It's a clicking/popping sort of sound.

Sometimes when I press the dash where I've circled it replicates the sound, usually more when the car is warm. When cold if I press it, it makes no noise. But regardless of temperature, when I drive, it makes the noise over small bumps every time

Been trying to figure it out for months now and just cannot get rid of it.

I tried some adhesive similar to blue tac ( black-tac ) and it seems to help but the noise is still there. Maybe I just have to live with it as it's an 08 Yaris
