eXXXtreme arosa Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 just seems to be a common problem on here from what i can gather mite not be that but its worth a try as the tweeter are only a push fit... mine are really tight now because theyve got infinity replacements in there lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one litre wonder ;) Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 the only rattle that i have from my dash comes from the pannels under the steering wheel colom . other than that theres an anoying rattle coming from the back near the rear passenger side window , but when you put somebody else in the back to hear it as you drive it goes away style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wtf:" border="0" alt="wtf.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petrified Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 I get a strange rattle in the back somewhere, funny thing it I've stripped it all out and it's still there style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh:" border="0" alt="huh.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj_slipp Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 If its on the passenger side and its not the tweeter, the little strip that has the vin number written on it used to rattle against the bottom of window in my arosa.Mines got lots of rattles now (more than I expected), but thats the price you pay for lowering it with tyres with a low profile. i need to spend a day locating them and fixing them.

Gavs_arosa16v Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 I would not bother. I have different rattles every day, seem to come and go. Lowering and stiffening suspension seems to bring out the rattles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfie698 Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 Mine is the same, actually sussed out that it is the headlining and interior light that is rattling, it seems to go away when its warmed up though (or maybe I just filter it out). Dont know how I would go about getting rid of it though.Pull out the interior light and spray some No More Big Gaps in the space? style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Cheers, Alfie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXXXtreme arosa Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 pull it out and put some stick back foam behind it or sound deadening its probably the wire knocking on the roof style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt_arosa16v Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Rattle in the back of mine is from the plastic trim around the inside of the rear windows (in my Arosa that is). This trim has actually become a bit loose. If anyone knows what im on about have you had the same problem. Plus is it just glued on or clipped? Thanks.

The subtle modder Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Rattle in the back of mine is from the plastic trim around the inside of the rear windows If anyone knows what im on about have you had the same problem. Plus is it just glued on or clipped? its glued on with double sided tape mate and the plastic window surround just peels off with caremine cars interior rattles like a bast*rd but get used to it must admit for a supposedly well built VW partnership product it aint put together that tight my cinq sporting still sounds tight after eight yearswayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
