Annoying rattle!!
« on: April 02, 2014, 07:04:44 am »
There is a really irritating rattle coming from i think the front passenger door area - It's doing my head in  >:(
The tweeter was a bit loose so i thought it might of been that but i fixed it back on and the rattle is still there.

Going to get the Mrs to drive the car while i'm in the paasenger seat to try and locate it.
But beforehand do you have any ideas fellas?  any common known rattles?

It isn't the seatbelt is it? My passenger seatbelt often rattles against the B pillar and does my head in.

2 common areas for rattles, although not on the passenger door....
Passenger sun visor sliding flap.
Interior mirror plastic housing where it attaches to windscreen.

Try those as the sun visor sounded like it was on the passenger door side on mine.

Keep looking then ! Best with a passenger to look/listen while you are driving.

My passenger front seat rattles a bit when the seat is empty!!!! No issues once someone is sitting on it.

Mine had a rattle when the sun visor was clipped in place. Unclip it and see if it goes.
