Hi,

The volume slider on my new 3ds xl makes a slight rattling sound when the volume is almost max. This happens when the volume slider is placed 70% and above.
I know its the slider as the hissing sound stops when I hold the slider.
My other new 3ds xls don't have this issue as the slider is more stiff and therefore held more in place.

Has anyone come across this issue and if so how did you resolve it?
Are there any sprays or anything I can put on the slider to make it less loose?
Any other tips?

Thanks in advance :D

I guess you could try a grease of some form. I think a spray would make it more slippery??

think I would replace tbh.

you could compress the metal down abit of the inside of the 3ds to compress the slider, but that might be alot of faff.

just my 10cents.
