Getting a vibrating noise from the rear-windshield blind

If I play a song with a lot of bass, there is a vibrating noise or clatter from the rear-windshield blind. If I open up the blind, the noise stops.

Anyone else with this issue?

Same here. but the noise doesn't stop even with the blind open. it was much worse and dealer replaced the sub, guess the car is not maid for playing minimal house music!:-)

I had the same problem. Put my hand under the rear shelf cover and could feel a wire harness causing the rattle.

I have the same problem while playing Alicia keys - "no one" which is a really loud bass song if you guys know it. I went in for service B last week and they said they will take a look at it, but at this point, I doubt that it can be fixed without lowering the volume. The vibration caused by the bass will make some noise no matter what I think.

I had the same problem when I bought me S550, I took it to the dealership and they replaced the speaker and that took care of the issue.

I can't believe this. Just this week mine started buzzing real bad while heavy bass is played. Never noticed it before until this thread started.
