anyone get horrible door panel vibration when stereo is turned up? i tried removing the door panel didnt want to come off so still not sure bout the vibration. seems to be coming from the door lock pulls. anyone got a fix?

 

my front passenger one has that issue, its going in next week to get checked

 

Luckily I dont get that problem. Only time it vibrates is when I have my cell in the side door panel handle thing.

 

Hotbox,

I actually went to check out the Scions to get better acquianted with it.

The door skins are pretty shallow / tinny. They don't have a lot of sound dampening in them and are pretty thin.

You might consider adding some sound deadening / insulation type material to your door.

I second that recomendation, I've deadened the crap out of my doors, the only thing I haven't done is the actual panel, but that is getting done this weekend probably.

I'll be doing a review/how to on it if you'd like to take a lookshould be done in a week or two.

 

no door vibes but the two covers in the rear have been making a major rattle for months tha dealer dont care! anyone else have this noise in back?

i also sound deadened everylittle bit on my xb and i get no rattles or vibration noise just my doors and roof flex about 3/8" on cetain bass notes not much i can do besides what i have allready done

 

Mine went in last week.

I thought maybe the speaker was blown, but I still have that noise. Volume real low, and rattles like a _____. I finally figured out that the door panel itself, near the speaker rattles. I put a finger there, and it stops.

I don't want to tear apart this door to find out the dealer didn't put a clip in the door somewhere.

 

i've always been a diyer but im a lil scared with my first and only brand new car so.... how do you remove the door panels? i tried but ____ wasn't budging

 

First you have to remove the two screws located inside the door handle. Once you have done that, I would recomend a Flat Screwdriver (Covered with some sort of protective cloth or somenthing just in case ure hand moves and scratches the door panel).

You will notice that the door panel has about 9 to 10 clips...once u pull the first one the remaining ones will come out pretty easy.... :D :D

If you have any questions let me know...

PS: The only way I know how to remove the door panel is because the remote for my Radio fell in between the glass and the door panel..LOL...dont ask how...

 

It must be a problem the right front door on my box also rattles when radio is on low volume had into the dealer for it to get fixed but it did not get fixed they said it did but WRONG must be an inherent problem with r/f door someone should contact SCION

 

when i took mine in a while ago it wasnt doing that, but its doing it again, hopefully when its in wednesday getting some otherstuff fixed it will be making that noise,s o they can figure it out.

otherwise i was thinking of just paying them to pop off all my door panels and leaving them off so i can soundmat the doors and also look and see if i can figure out the rattle on that door.

ive noticed if i push on the door lock it seems to stop.

these doors are terrible, i can hear my radio perfectly clear when im standing outside of it with all the windows up and doors shut. my metro doesnt do that at all

 

[quote="TOAST3R"]dont pay them to take your doors off unless they are takin them off anyway just ask them to leave them off...its not worth it...you can pull all 4 doors off in about 2 minutes total...they will probably charge you for a half hour of labor at the dealership...all you have to do is take out the screw in the handles, grab the bottom of the door panel and pull off, then unplug the plugs...the only tool you need is a philips head screwdriver

 

Front right here as well... I'm glad I'm not alone on this. I was already thinking of packing the car anyways so I guess I'll step this up on the list.

 

drives me crazy.. I should take mine in.


edit: you know what's funny? when you get the scion survey they show you how to fill it out and the example is "rattle in right front door when stereo is on" I circled it and due an arrow, "Yup"
