That's it, I've had it.
I've had it with the rattling noises. Tomorrow, being that I have nothing to do I will be ripping apart my interior and fixing the rattles from the rear with the help of WIS.
In all honesty, I probably won't get rid of many rattles the interior is such a POS. If I can't get rid of the rattles im selling the *******g thing. I love the car but the interior ruins it for me.

i found many places rattling when i got my sub.... first the interior lights... front AND back rattles.... the cover is jsut clipped on... i think u need something soft between th cover and the roof so it doesn't rattle.... 2nd is the back of the roof near the rear windshield.... i dono what's in between the metal roof and the interior roof material but it rattles and if i press against it it stops rattling... 3rd is the license plates.... specificaly the frame for the rear license plate rattles.... and 4th is the rear bumper.... maybe because i got hit there b4 but something inside the bumper rattles and that can't be helped for me.... hope this helps.... but my rattles were soo annoying that i sold my sub....

I bought some dynamat and bedding foam to help out tomorrow. If I can't fix them I'm selling the car.
I test drove the new a4 with the audi MMI and it is a beautiful car, comlpletely rattle free, plus their warranty covers everything except tires!!!
Im really outraged with the quality of this interior. What the f*ck were they thinking. The rattles have gotten so bad with the subs I hate driving the *******g thing. If I can't fix it tomorrow I'm trading it in.

Most of my rattles came from the headliner and C pillar covers. I bought new clips for the C pillar covers which helped a little with keeping them from rattling with subwoofers, but still from rough roads there are rattles all around.
I got a good price at an upholstery shop that will reupholster the headliner in black, fix the rattle, and reassamble everything for $350 not including any extra parts that might be neccessary.

3199 I hear you on the interior noises. I mean you cant really blame mb since they didnt put subs in the trunk stock. On my cabrio the noise got so bad that i just gave up and took the subs out. They really beat the **** out of all of your inteiriro and in a matter of time **** will rattle. I still feel our interiors are nicer than the 203 chassis c class fit and finish and the 209. THe only rattle that I had that was annoyin was the dash and they replaced the dam thing opening up a pandoras box of more rattles
