rattling between 40-80 mph
anyone get a rattling when hitting the gas between 40-80mph? It only happens when you push on the gas, doesnt matter if its a little or to the floor, it rattles.
I took it to the dealer and they said it was a loose panel when installing the nav, so they tightened it and its still doing it. You have to have the radio off and by very quiet to hear it, but its louder now that they "fixed" it. And its only when you accelerate. Its so strange.

The only rattle I've ever had was the glove box. A lot of other people have reported that too. Try pressing in on the glove box right when you hear the rattle. If it is the glove box, it will stop.

i have a very faint rattle whenever the rpms are above 3000. it is a panel somewhere and pretty sure it isn't the engine...must be the frequency of the engine vibration that makes that piece (where ever it is) rattle....you have to be quiet to hear it though.

yeah thats the rattle i get!
I just had the glovebox rattle looked at yesterday. It seems better.
I get a rattle that's either the door panel, a pillar or b pillar. It happens over broken pavement or when lugging around in 5th in traffic (so more engine shake).

it is inside the dash...like deep inside. it is annoying nonetheless. but i will live with it.
also the rattle/crack at the a pillar/door when going over bumps i have too.
glove box rattle occasionally...
this car's interior is made of rattling plastic.
