Default Anyone get rattles/noises during hard turning and braking?

Just took a 400mi road trip through the mountains.. On the way back, I got like 2 more rattles! One in the driver's side arm rest. The other somewhere from the hatch. I am 100% positive my rear strut bar is not the culprit because I already did the fix for that.

I noticed I dont get as many rattles during normal driving. Anyone else experience something similar? Also, any fix for the rear hatch rattle?

I got 35,000 miles and a crap load of rattles, although I'm gradually fixing the loudest/most annoying.

I've got it down to a rattle in my rear view mirror, one in the seat (just had the TSB done, too, which fixed the problem for about a week).

I had one in the hatch that seems to have gone away by itself, unless I hit a big, jarring, bump, in which case the entire car becomes a rattle for a split second.

I had one in my drivers door panel, but I removed the panel and put it back on and the rattle seems to have gone away. Maybe you can do that and check for window wires or loose snap fits that could be moving around.

Rattles and the drivers seat are the two things that bug me about the Z (and it's not even the movement in the seat, but the popping sound I get from the backrest).

Anyhow, good luck diagnosing your noises and getting them fixed.
