Door rattle

day tripper · 26-10-2004, 16:09

After 1 second when closing the passenger door theres a rattle-anyone having similar problems?

All these rattles, squeaks, creaking sounds are getting on my nerves.

Take all the interior apart and pad everything with felt...this is what im seriously considering as the amount of rattles my interior has is awful

Sorry i cant help

Wanna try running badly setup comps in your doors.

Nothing but a bit of music, farting and shaking and banging....

But oddly enough its starting to bed in, getting a little more bassier, and once I've got the matting sorted out and properly sealed the speaker DIY timber mounts, it should be sounding sweet as.

Well yeah they keep doing mine, but my cars now been in about 5 times and that means i end up going into work late after taking my car in and picking up an awful 1.2 slug only for it to last about 3 weeks before something else starts to rattle. Next trip to the dealers in on tuesday for a clonking dash...they can also fix my rattling rear seats, creaking drivers seat and buzzing doors too. Again.

Word of advice I've had - If you can pick up laminate flooring insulation, especially sticky backed stuff - that works well to pack out interior, like door cards. I'll be looking to get some through one of my work's suppliers - trade prices, no VAT. excellent.

Im convinced the Octy is better built than the Furby. I dont know if its down to quality of plastics or what, its exactly the same with the Ibiza and Leon.

One or two minor creaks in mine but I have only noticed them since putting the KW suspension on. They only appear on really bumpy roads.

Well I was at Horners Manchester today to get a new heated mirror glass and they check out the rattling, the door didnt rattled when i closed it anymore. However more importantly there was a really irritating creaking noise in the car when driving at slow speeds when when reversing it would increase, this turned out to be a missing bolton from the intercooler pipe. They sorted it and now theres no noise!!!

Had one rattle in the Furby on the boot lid took it back to the dealers all been ok since then now done 9.5 k I think the build on the Furby is so good looking at swapping our mondeo new shap for an octy VRS
