Rattles

[kerstien]

My coupe has a few rattling noises that really get to me. The main ones are the locks and the plastic parts behind the seat. The locks when in a locked position rattle less however they are still very irritating. The plastic at the back doesn't go away. Has anyone found a solution for these or is it just me driving a sports car on crap roads?

thanks

I also have one which I think originates from the roller cover behind the passenger seat, which I must investigate.

Duct tape ....

Make sure you get the M specific duct tape, as the ordinary stuff wouldn't work on an M rattle

Try looking at the storage boxes behind both seats, if they have ever been removed the lugs on the back (and are moulded with the storage box) can break off and if they are not all in tact then it may be the cause.There are approx 8 on each box. I have just ordered new storage boxes which are over one hundred pounds or you could use some kind of adhesive/sealant

Thanks I'll have a look. However I suspect that all back plastic makes noises. It's seems to be the plastic parts rubbing against one another. I thought of inserting foam between the parts.
It could be because we get very hot days and the roads don't help, however I generally feel the plastics could have been of better quality.
Anyone k ow the cure for rattling locks?

The plastic bulkhead behind the seats rattles annoyingly on mine too,a high freq rattle that sounds like a wasp in your ear.Horrid plastic crap.

Is the back of the seat rubbing against the speaker covers/ funny holes? Try moving the seat forward or up a bitto see if this helps.

No chance of my seat rubbing against the back...I'm not tall enough!
It's definitely the plastic behind as it squeaks when I push at it. Anyone solved this?
