Weird rattle from the rear part of the cabin

**aaronng** · 04-02-2005 06:07 PM

Hey all,

For the past 2 months, I've been having this weird sound whenever there is uneven road. It doesn't appear when I go over big cracks or speed bumps. It sounds like a fingernail tapping on metal. I suspect it is some cabling that is tapping against the roof when I go through uneven road. The sound is very clear and not muffled at all. I just emptied my whole boot and stuck my upper half body inside to investigate any potential sources, but I can't find any. Anyone have the same phenomena happening in your Euro? Just wanted to find out before I went back to the dealer (again!).

nothing here...

Not anything here too. What is the mileage of your Euro and how long have you owned it for? It could be a loose screw or something.

I have some noises coming from the back as well. But I know what mine is. The rear internal tailight is loose as well as the cover try that may be the same. Rattles like crazy espec when I turn the stereo up. Is going in for warranty repair Monday.

learner: I haven't gone to the dealer yet. I'll have to make an appointment. Hehe, they just saw me last week for my clutch master cylinder. They will be pretty irritated.
I've got about 4300km's on my car. The noise started at around 2500km or so.

With mine, it happens both when the radio is on or off. Of course, when the radio is on, I notice it less, but it is loud enough to notice. With the radio off, it drives me crazy!!! This is worse than a normal rattle because the sound is so clear and sharp that it is more irritating. I'm not sure if it is the taillight on mine, because the sound seems to be coming from either the rear shelf or the rear part of the roof. I haven't sat in the back yet, because no one knows how to drive stick!!!!!!!!

Man i have rattles in my car as well...

Most of it is associated with me having Coilovers.. So i don't want to annoy honda coz i know what they are gonna say its coz of the suspension...

The rattles are okay it just rattles when i go over uneven roads... But now my rattles are coming off from the roof...

Try to press the roof of the euro while ur inside and u will find that it makes a funny noise... Man i'm scared if i put an aftermarket exhaust my rattles are gonna be more intensified...
