im about to go rattle hunting tomorrow.. ( bass rattle) but just wondering where some of your rattles were and hwo you fixed them..
i seem to get a rear parcel shelf rattle.
the rattle on the rear parcel shelf are mainley the wires. between where the clips anchor them down to the rear parcel shelf they vibrate like a sine wave smaking into the metal of the parcel shelf. Fix this buy shoving foam under the wires. When just attack your boot area with a 10mm making sure everything else is tight.
