Removing paneling back hatchback permanently
This stuff is starting to rattle lately and was thinking of removing as to solve the annoying noise permenently.I was wondering if road noise would be greatly louder?
I was also considering drilling hole/s and filling with expansion foam to eliminate panel rattles. I find it extremly annoying and it drives me bloody nuts and angry. P.S I dont care what the interior looks like as long as no rattles are present. P.S#2 its not the hatchback door or tirecover or whats underneath 100% sure. |

I was thinking of that.I may get some really long screws with big washers and screw panels down tight.I will be removing panels totally tomorrow to see what and where to drill holes into metal for screws.I couldint care less how it looks aslong as the noise stops.Its to the point where I dont even want to drive the car its that annoying.

Run foam tape all around the perimeter of the panel and reinstall.

This could be the problem as it kinda makes the sound I am hearing.It would sound different with hatch closed of couese.It aslo explains why I dont hear it when hatch is up,or decoupled.Would this be good for 50 bucks canadian? https://www.amazon.ca/TOYOTA-2005-20...e+lift+support Last edited by Pinchlite; 07-22-2017 at 06:55 AM. |

Nice, glad you found the problem. Totally forgot about that high mount brakelight causing a rattle. I had the same issue years ago and just stuffed some foam in there.

yarid hatchback hatch rattle buzz noise
that's odd. what else is there? might try driving w/o hatch struts? is latch mechanism now a possible source? (the lamp switch it contains is a mystery to me...was looking for a way to mod to switch off lamp w/ hatch open, then found a 1w LED bulb and quit concern for it.)

For a guy with what I would consider having mild OCD, I never trip on the squeaks and creaks cars make. I guess I just assume that moving down the road at +75 mph, stuff is always going to move around. I would expect less in a more expensive car, but I guess I just accepted it when buying a Yaris.
Having said that, ten years in and I don't find my Yaris making all that much noise. Mostly the back spare cover when going over really rough terrain, as well as little bit of bouncing from that big hard plastic dash. |

Dash,doors are fixed of rattles and my utility boxes are screwed down (Back where spare tire is)Rear seat delete along with all seatbelt hardware removed. This was the only other rattle and know the car is rattle/squeeky free besides the side power windows only when rolled down(really bumpy surfaces only).This I can totally live with and can drive annoyance free. |
