Rattles, rattles, rattles....

Hello everyone,

During the last month I have noticed some really annoying sounds coming from inside of the car (mostly the passenger side) whenever I drive on a rough road or over bumps. I think this might be coming from the pillarless windows and maybe the headrests. Does anyone else experience these kind of rattles? If it is from the pillarless windows is there a solution to the problem?


Thanks in advace for your replies.

It migth be your suspension. If it is a sqeek sound, then its the rubber seals. Take it into the dealership and have them look at it. I get rattles and sqeeks once in a while.....

I also hear some rattles from the cabin, but it hasn't been loud enough to make me have the dealer fix the problem. I can't pinpoint it, but it does sound like it comes from behind where I sit.

I got the same thing. First, it was my rear sunshade which the dealer replaced. Now, its the passanger headrest which the dealer is getting replaced for me. There are also very minor noises in random places. Ever since I've gotten my exhaust, I've been hearing a lot of rattling in the car. When I hit the gas, the exhaust is very deep which causes anything loose to vibrate.

Mine turned out to be the rear sunshade as well. Figured it out after reading the forums. The dealer couldn't find the problem, of course.

I have an annoying squeek that just came up about a month ago. It is coming from the rear seat on the driver's side. It sounds like the leather is rubbing against something. rear seat is not loose. Seems the niose goes away after the car gets warm inside.......i.e. been driven for a while.
I assume its just the cold leather rubbing against something on the side of the car. Figure it will go away this summer.
