Hey guys. I just bought back my old celica and have been busy working on it. The exhaust was so loud on this beast that I couldn't hear the rattle until I just replaced my Hi-flo cat with a new quieter and deeper sounding one. Now I can here myself think.
This is the problem - I have a rattle coming from the rear passenger side. I thought it was the hatch - it is not. It is not anywhere in the trunk area. I've narrowed it down to somewhere between the b-pillar and below the rear quarter window. Any thoughts? It is driving me NUTS. I can only here it when I hit a bump. It sounds like the hatch is shaking. But it is not the hatch. I hope 1 of you knows exactly what it is. thanks. |

Jack it up and grab your rear strut. Try shaking it. Also, check your jack... The scissor jack will make all kinds of noise if it's loose.

It sounds like something broke off above the rear speaker. the car is clean and everything is tight. I'm going to have to rip all the panels off and probably the rear seat too. Thanks guys. If I figure this one out, I'll let you know what it was. |
