i have a rattle that i think is coming from the power window keys on the driver and possibly the passenger side. Whenever the rattle sounds i put my hand on the armrest of the door/on top of the power window buttons and the rattling stops. When i let go, the rattling resumes. I don't think i have any rattles coming from the shifter ring though.

I thought it was time to post this..... I bought my Track Model in September and Ive come to the conclusion that everything in my car that isnt mechanical is pure GARBAGE! When I take a hard left turn I hear this unbearable squeak in my seat that has driven me to search for Recaros online. My right front speaker blew out the other day. Mind you I never put the stereo over 15. If Im stopped at a light, the stereo reception is disastrous. I feel like I paid $36K for a piece of sheeiit. Drives awesome though....lol

I've noticed that if I leave a pair of sunglasses in the little overhead holder, that it will rattle...

25mo's, 25000mi..........few rattles. the current one is the known TSB rear veiw mirror.

FYI, when I changed to the Nismo GT shift ****, I had to leave the 'washer' out because it would rattle endlessly. Now, no noise.

my review rattles occasionally, if i grab it, it stops for a few hundred miles. The dash rattle can be taken care of with a few round felt pads from the home depot just stack three or four on top of each other and wedge them between the windshield and the dash about where the security system light is and that will take care of the dash. Those are the only rattles I had and I have had mine 12 months and 12,500 miles.

i got my car used with under 13k. I looked at the repair reports and i saw that there was a complaint that the shifter ring was rattling, they fixed the problem with two way tape.

I could never get my sunglasses to fit in the holder. I guess they are not designed for normal size sunglasses?

I have a slight rattle coming from the passenger side somewhere that only occours when I am moving. I only noticed it the other day when I turned down the stereo and drove around with the windows down.

I am going to ask the woman to sit over there while I drive and find it for me.

Do your interior panels buzz a little? I don't have any real rattles per say, but when it gets cold you sure hear a lot of buzzing and clicking noises on rough pavement. I've experienced this in all brands of cars...from BMWs to kias.

I currently have a rattle that has me staring into my windshield towards the middle. I press on the gauges and on the dash and I can't seem to stop it. It's one of the biggest complaints I have for this car...the thing rattles like mad.

The security light rattle was driving me crazy this winter. I'd hold myfinger on it and the rattle would stop. I pulled it out many times and would pack foam, etc., around it trying to get rid of the annoying rattle. It worked only for a while. I saw Reese's suggestion of stuffing felt pad between the dash and the windshield. I tried it and the rattle is gone. Thanks Reese.
