Business card suggestion or cracking the windshield
My only thoughts about inserting a business card is that it may just force open another contact point causing the noise to migrate to somewhere else.
My glass guy (Not an Infiniti technician) warned me that the windshield might crack when they removed it. Then my cost would have been $300. But he had no problem with it given the poor adhesion from the original install. I sympathize but the noise is gone and I am happy that I took the risk.

Damn, i thought I was crazy for a while but then I was sure there was noise from my windshield when my passenger siad she hears something too. Its when I run over any bump, big or small does it sound like my windshield is cracking. I just started getting it a month or two ago. I had my car for a little over a year.

The dealer still doesn't have the part after 6 weeks. I should hear from them tomorrow. I will post as soon as the repair is done. right now the noise is not as loud .. I still assume there is some relation to temerature. The only difference is the temperature right now. Sunday morning it was in the high 30's and the creaking was present.

I have the creaking noise from the dash wind shield area. My dealer took the windshield out. They traced the problem to a molding under the front edge of the windshield. A new part was ordered but isn't in yet...This was over 3 weeks ago. Should be in next week. I will post how this goes. if sun shines on the car ..and it is warm. the noise goes away. The worst case was in the cold weather. The frequency of the squeak bled though the radio...like nails on a chalkboard... I have an 08 Gx that was build in early November 07

Imtermittent creaking, more so when it is cold and is triggered by either bumps or the chassis flexing.

I know this is an old thread but I recently started noticing the crackling noise coming from the windshield or center cluster area. It happens over any slight imperfection in the road and it's driving me crazy. I plan to take it into the dealer but not sure how receptive they will be to this issue. Is this something that would be covered under warranty?

my '08 just developed the annoying tapping/crackling sound.
its sounds like its coming from the left dash/wind shield area and it will make that noise when it go over bumps and rough road.
i guess its another trip going back to the dealer to try to fix this. i have been going to the dealer for TSB/warranty issue so often i feel like i own a VW ...

Stumbled across my problem
I've lived with the tapping in the passenger side of the dash for at least 6 months now. After removing the glovebox and driving around feeling for anything loose, I stumbled on this thread and assumed I had the same problem.
This weekend I was changing the oil, and noticed I had a small coolant leak coming from the upper coolant hose where it connects to the radiator. While fumbling around looking at the hose, I noticed that the top of the radiator would wobble forward and backward by a couple of millimeters -- and the rattle it produced was identical to the sound that I thought was coming from the passenger dash.
So I wedged a piece of hard rubber to keep the radiator from rattling, and seemed to have solved my problem! How that noise transferred from the front of the car to the passenger dash is beyond me, but I know that noises have a weird way of traveling.
So before you have the heater core flushed, if you've got annoying rattle and it sounds like it's coming from the passenger dash, just go and try to wiggle the upper radiator hose.
