Worst Rattle Ever
My '07 developed the most annoying rattle I've ever heard. It sounded like a bass drum coming from the back when I would drive over rough roads or hit bad bumps.
Over several beers and fajitas yesterday I got several of the guys out in driveway to try and figure out where it was coming from. After several trips of different guys riding in back we decided that it was the rear door locking mechanism mis-adjusted. The door would bounce ever so slightly from the bumps and bang on the metal frame of the lock. There wasn't much adjustment room, but just a little bit took care of the problem.
Just in case anybody else comes across this.....
