Default What's that rattle

Anyone know or have the same issue as me? I have coils and a sway bar and somewhere on my hatch (I'm assuming) it rattles once I hit a bump. Any suggestions to a rattle in the rear?? Nh

it possibly or more than likely be what i have, once it gets cold the little flaps that are found near the rear quarter panels rattle like crazy. they are the flaps that vent out air when you close your doors to let out pressure. They rattled on my old car too.

My hatch also rattles sometimes but if i open and re-close it it usually stops.

if you are asking if the rattle from the hatch is normal....then yes. it is wicked common for the garnish's clips to crack/break and it makes it rattle like crazy. also the lining to the hatch around the glass rattles a ton. i have ~1200 rms in my trunk and the car sounds like a tinker toy when the bass hits - drives me nuts.

Very common. I intend on tackling the rattle tomorrow based off some info I got from this forum. It seems that for most people it's the plastic behind the lining around the hatch window rattling against the lining itself. I'll find out tomorrow I guess...I can't stand rattles.
