Please read. I said "IT SEEMS LIKE" 50% of the Zs have this problem. Obviously I have not conducted a phone or e-mail survery. I just happen to see the rattle listed as a common complaint.

I hope this clears it up for you. :hello:

I've got rattles from the hatch cover, and now the middle cabin (where the nav should be).

OK but you have no idea weather the search hitws are all independently unique of each other or are duplicated postings from a limited number of individuals or just blog propogations. In other words your "search hit" universe is certainly suspect to make the 50% claims you are making.

Nissan is rather notorious for rattles... every Nissan I've been in thus far had somesort of a rattle or squeaky door problem. Facts are, if you wanted to be certain you wouldn't have any rattles, you would've bought a Porsche.

And yes I might even fling a little personal piece of poo at them too since I had to wade through the uninformed and unsupported :bs: they used to support their opinion.

If a person is going to post an opinion, then in my books, make it an educated opinion...not something completely pulled from their heart, butt or from some magician's hat.

:owned:

LOL....I Think I know of whom you speak...:tup:

That's kind of a ridiculous statement...Porsches aren't perfect either (yeah, I've had 8 of them). There are so many production variables that even the most expensive and revered nameplates can have a rattle here and there.. My Z is like a bank vault. Pretty darn good for the $$ and humble origins..

one of my cars is a 2008 honda fit. its great for what it is, around town, haul stuff in, i can get 2 bikes in the back with the seats down for instance.

i think its honda's cheapest car.

the 2009+ has more features than the 2008-. so its not chock full of amenities.. but it is put togehter like a swiss watch.

it is a matter of attention to detail.. and that attention does not necessarily have to come at a premium price..

You're right, and I don't really give a ****. Again, for clarity, I said it SEEMS like 50%. Is it really that big of deal? Do you need the attention or something?

The interesting thing is the ratlle does seem to come from the back, usually on roads where the suspension is really working the bumps...and when the hatch is opened and closed it then goes away for awaile...........who knows??????????? :icon14:


Sorry, these are a figment of your imagination. They simply do not exist. :rolleyes:

Rattle
 
The rattle seems to be temperature dependent in my car. I usually notice it when the temperature is cooler outside. However, I can't find the damn cause of it for the life of me. Good thing my Ipod is in the car...

cave vulture 07-24-2009 02:21 PM

I don't notice the rattle until the car warms up.....still having trouble finding it.....
