B-Pillar plastic noise - Help
Um.....this fricken fixed my problem....the noise is gone!!!!! Holy Fock ***** I am happy....that was driving me flipping nuts. Honda-guy .....if it wasn't for your user name I would love you to death.
the rubber on the latch rubs with the rubber on the door and it makes loud squeaking noise when the door moves during chasis twist.

B pillar silence
Door hanle squeaking, what the bloody hell?!
okay, sounds like this might remedy the sublte squeaking noise I get from the latch area, YEAH!, but have ANY OF YOU gotten a rattling noise come from the inside door handles?? Both drivers and passenger side door handles rattle inside, with only 450 miles on the odo, this is annoying. . . .(yeah, I've searched). . . .I only found some info on it saying that there's a TSB where the MITSU dealer can put felt lining between the latch and the metal so it won't rattle, is this a legitimate fix? BOTH of the handles do this. . . I've got the SSL and can drown out the noise until my first oil change, but I've got to know. . .any help would be

Just an update, called up the dealer, scheduled to get the door handle rattle "examined" tommorrow, they denied a TSB for it, so if any of you have it, that would be great. . . .
they ALSO denied the TSB for the windshield rattle as well, so I'll just take the TSB number and have them pull it up. . .this is my first stealership visit, so I'm already a bit put off. . . .
THEY DID Say there is a turbo coolant hose recall, DUH, I told them to fix that BEFORE I picked my car up last week, I guess it was pre-campaign and they decided to wait until now. . .

every one here owes me $5 each after I tell you what the problem is 
. It took me a week to figure out where the noise was coming from. Even after pulling off all the panels, the noise still did not go away. so i knew it was not from the panels but from some other moving parts. it drove me crazy, it was only making the noise in town when i was drive slow over bumps (when the chasis twist), but stoped when i open the door. are you ready for this!!!
It's the door latch. look at the metal hook on your door pillar (the part on the car that the door latch on when it's closed) and see if there's any black plastics that was rubbed off the latch on the door stuck to it. just scrub off the plastic residue with some abrasive and - Voila. now you can send $5 to my paypal account.
You is welcome.
edit: this wasn't a rattling noise, more like a loud squeeking sound.
