Front ashtray rattle?

I cant figure this out... My front ashtray rattles like mad when my engine hits 3,000-3,2000 rpm. I cant seem to find anything lose on my ashtray I have taken the little glow plug out and it still rattles... But when I lightly touch it the rattle stops. Anyone have this happen or do I need to go out and just get a new ashtray?

Has happened a few times. Have you tried lubricating the thingy where it comes or whatever? Worked for us.

What kind of lube do you recommend?

I have no idea. My dad did that part. Have you checked to see if the plate cover is attached right? That thing's a POS.
