Suggestion · Original poster
Sorry if I have missed a solution, from years ago (blame the carp search function...) but does anyone have an elegant/effective solution for the rattling seatbelt buckle which occurs when nobody is using the passenger seatbelt?

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.
PistonHeads: 1 discussions
0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.
6 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Sticking a sticky rubber pad on the B-pillar trim seems terribly un-Porsche....;-)
What you need to do is place the seat belt stopper flush up against the seat belt buckle section...then retract the seatbelt tension, and glide both as far up the seatbelt length as you can: the buckle is then held tight to the gap where the seatbelt comes out of the top of where a b pillar would be.

I had started to try and convince myself it was a Porsche "characteristic". I've done this also and it has solved the issue for me too. Thank you
