Default TC Rattling?

Not sure if any of you have rattling noises on your back right hand side...sounds like suspensions, or something loose?? Not sure, I haven't changed any suspension or done any work on my '06 that will cause it to make that rattling sound. Anyone in the same boat? What's the fix??

Thanks in advance

Is it a rattling or a clunking? Usually if it's suspension you'd hear more of a clunk, likely when you go over a bump or something.

Is there any time it's more prevalent? Has anyone else driven it to see what they hear? A second opinion is always good - especially for locations of noises.

Is a clunking noise, my gf hears it also. I saw an article on this forum regarding the clunking noise...forgot to track it to see what was the solution to it. The car has less than 2500 miles on it, and I heard of it when it got around to 400 miles or so. I know for sure is coming from the back right hand side. It annoys the hell out of me and I want to try to fix it ASAP, but first I gotta know what's wrong or see if anyone has encountered such such with their TC also.

Help?!

Have your wheels been off for anything lately? Any maintenance performed? Shouldn't have affected anything, but it's possible.

And no, it's not normal for sway bars to clunk. But that's what it could be. Best bet might just be to pull the wheel off... yank on a few bars and see if anything is loose. Could be an end link or something maybe. If you don't find anything that's loose. You should take it in and have them check it. Should be warranty if there's anything wrong anyways.

I used to hear that same sound. i have about 3900miles on mine now. I haven't heard it lately, maybe because i got used to it or something. But yea, it came from the rear right side, every time i hit a bump, it sounded like somethin was loose. If u take the rear seat belt and knock it against the side panel, it sounds something like that, just a bit deeper sound. But that's not the problem.
