It told me that the sound was caused by the subwoofer being on.. which is funny because it was off and my headunit faceplate was in my hand) hopefully it gets taken care of soon.. The sun roof rattle is bad enough.. which they still didn't fix.. as well as the radio doors.. now the hatch..

. They lowered the latch I think, and it seemed to solve the problem for a bout a week, just came back tonight. I am going to look at the mechanism myself and tighten it down myself.

yep. older build need minimal latch adjustment. newer (2/05) corrected. weather related for some odd reason. less problem in hotter climates. no tsb but dealer will know about the latch adjustment . gl

I took mine in 2 weeks ago and they stuck a small piece of rubber on one of the hatch stops that fell off after opening the hatch twice
and that was the second time i brought it in the first time they didnt hear anything

Where did I put that post????
Oh yeah here it is:

Page 3 has some good stuff.
And as an update the rattle has yet to re-appear, even when we've hit the low 90's.
Of course now that I've posted that, it's gonna rattle like hell on the way home.

I have the same problem...
Do you think it may be that your car is dropped and one of the springs in the rear is not sitting properly?
I always hear the noise when I go over bumps.
