I've noticed the rattle/buzz of the soundaktor seems to be temperature dependent. When it's above 40 for me it sounds normal like when I first got the car.

RS5 Rear Floor May Anchors

I have those wheels on our 2014 SQ5, but the machine faced/grey ones. Not the ones you are asking about.

Quality is great and I’m on my 3rd set of Hartmann’s after 6 cars. Never an issue.
