Default Help - loud rattle from behind...

passenger seat in TTR. I have read posts about the rear deck rattle in the coupes. Does this pertain to the Roadster as well? Any suggestions/input appreciated.

I just got my 225coupe sat and while driving a rough road yesterday started hearing a loud rattle!! Started investigating and found that the rear passenger seat wasn't properly latched. When I grabbed one seat back, no movement...when Igrabbed and shook the other it moved back and forth...thats where my rattle was coming from!!! Hope thats the source of yours!

Default My experiencce has been that it is the door rattling. On close inspection of the

plastic door alignment pin and its grooves on the door jam, we saw white dust which indicates rubbing. We put an automotive beeswax substance, Door Ease, on both the door alignment pin and the groves on the door and so far it seems to have virtually eliminated the rattle. The dealer told me to keep the rubber siliconed but everytime you wash the car or it rains the silicone goes away.

You need to slam the seat cloesed, that will stop the rattling and seat movement
