So do I  Fern.

I tried the tape, which originally seem to stop the problem.

I then took a side cover off, and looked at the various
clearances.

I came to the conclusion the main culprit was the top of the PA
shield being close to the top cover, but not actually attached to
it.

My solution, until I get the file out was to split a piece of
rubber sleeving lengthwise, and curl this over the top edge of the
metal shield. This forces the top cover up slightly and also stops
the metal surfaces from coming into contact on audio peaks.
