When I first started flying the plane I had an unexplained vibration/noise usually at higher airspeeds and typically in the descent. 
 
It was first thought to be the nose gear door, but reprofiling it, adjusting the hydraulic cylinder and generally ensuring a good fit did not cure the problem.
 
The glare shield was eventually found to be the culprit.  It is unsupported at the front and can vibrate freely.  We stuffed a foam cowl plug in there whilst in flight one day and the noise stopped.
 
If that is any help, be my guest, at any rate the advice is free!
