ok am i the only person on this forum that doesnt hear any rattling coming from the hatch, im very curious to know how many people are hearing this. im beginning to get very worried about you guys

maybe its all in your head??!! and everytime someone mentions it you go, " yeah i heard the same thing driving home" hmmm

i drove home with the radio off just to see and i heard nothing.

Consider yourself lucky.

No I haven't heard it. Granted, my car only has 218 miles on it.

I always marvel at how much quieter it is than my Supra, so I never notice any noises.

It took some miles for it to start, but it's definately there and pretty aggrevating.

 

[gottc?]

i've got over 6k miles and only notice rattling when my subs are turned up loud

^^^ well thats a given. of course its going to rattle.

 

[mrbrace]

yeah I have a sunroof rattle that is constant but it has taken me over 1 month to convince the dealer that I need a new sunroof, so they have finally ordered everything to install my new one and hopefully this one won't rattle

Drove it back to my house from a 1 hour drive, heard a clank sound from the back when I was slowing down at the off ramp. Then again it just could of been the stock muffer in the back.

hamster thanks for posting the link but that thread was kinda old and defintely needed a free bump up or something. i dont like to post in old threads especially one that started in march, its almost july but thanks though

i have 4k miles on the car now and i can only imagine how annoying it is to not know what is making the sound so you can fix it.
there was a point where i would always hear something but i figured out it was all the cd's that i had in the arm rest compartment. so everytime i made a corner i would hear it. how many of you have taken this issue to the dealer?

 

[basilisk4]

11 months and 14,300 miles. Still only slight rattling from time to time. Hasn't been enough to bother me since sometime in 2004.

Two weeks and 600 miles later I can only notice something very slight when going over the little speed grooves in front of the parking garage at work...with the radio off...

 

[Repo1981]

I also have a slight rattle, if i knew how to take apart the top of the hatch i definetly would to remedy my problem....because I do have a few things i want to try to get rid of it.

I've been battling this for about a year. Bought the car last June and about a month later the hatch started rattling. I was told that it's the struts and that Scion/Toyota was aware of the problem and that they're trying to remedy the problem. My dealer said some TC's have such a problem with the struts that the hatch won't even stay up. We've replaced the struts twice on mine and I still have the problem.
I also have a problem with the drivers side vent rattling, replaced it and now the one in there not only rattles--it also can't stay in one spot.
Fun stuff

The strut story is an out and out lie. You need to find a better service department.

 

[CandaceNicole]

My car has 300 miles on it and I've noticed the rattling, off and on, for the past 100 miles. The second I heard the noise, I immediately thought of ya'll and knew exactly what it was.

 

[bacobitz]

lo bux racer: what makes you think the struts are not the problem?
have you had any luck with anything to remedy the problem?
