Rattling Rear Door
#1
Hi, getting a intermittent rattle from rear door / rear window area- cannot seem to locate exact spot. Anyone suffered from this ? If so, how best to fix it ? Thanks.

Have you checked the lock sometimes comes loose and gives a rattle;0)

As blingo said. Check the locks. My boot lock plate bolts loosened and the boot used to rattle over bumps etc.

It now seems more likely to be coming from the top rear corner ( passenger side ) possibly eminating from behind the aperture which the central seat belt appears out of.

Hi,
I think I had the same problem,
only after I had let a friend of mine drive my car and sat at the back sit
I found out that my noise was coming from a plastic unit the is located on the beam between the front and back door.
if you open the door there is a pin closer to the top of the door that will go to the plastic part on the beam.

It took me while to find it.

Let me know if this is it.

We had a rattle early on - it was the catch on the sliding door window, the nut wasn't quite tight enough.

Happened to me too, I had to buy a cheap socket-set just to get a small range of the weirdo (torx?) doodads just to tighten things up Smile
