I just bought a used 2005 xA a week ago and I LOVE IT... except I'm getting that rattling from the bass in music like a lot of other people seem to experience...

I first noticed rattling in the driver's side by the window switches so I put paper in there and it fixed it. Perfect. But now I hear it in the passenger side down by the speaker. I've applied pressure on a bunch of areas and it doesn't fix it so I'm thinking of taking the door panel off to get access to the speaker. I just don't know how to do this.

Any help would be appreciated. Even another solution to fixing the rattling in there. I've searched and searched on here but I only found a tutorial to take the xD door panel off. Thanks!

Hi,

I don't have a XA, but a XB. It should be similar. With the XB you have a plastic screw on the upper side that you unscrew a little and then pop it out.
Then you unscrew the plastic door handle. And there is a screw in the door release handle cup. After that, you should be able to just undo the door panel. There are plastic taps on the back, so you have to pull a little and they will pop loose.
I hope this helps.
Bye,
