My classic has a rattle coming from the roof upholstery, If i touch one of the blanking plates above the drivers head it goes.

Also the front doors rattle when the stereo gets cramked up.

MY03 WRX

instrument pod rattles - light pressure on the bottom or side stops it, otherwise much better assembled than I ever expected...

Door panel on back passenger door rattles. I just make sure the burble drowns it out. I`ve read a thread on how to fix it, but havent got round to it yet.

I've had the window wind noise thing and it was solved for free by my dealer at its service. They adjust the angle of the window or something.

Angry

The aerial rattles on my MY00 classic, but not all the time, in fact most of the rattles on the car just seem to come and go completely at random. I've also got something rolling about inside the channel under the seat, a click from the drivers side B pillar, a squeak coming from god knows where and various dash rattles. Still a great car though

O2 STi - right behind my right ear there is a rattle in either the doors or the centre pillar damned if I can find it - it is driving me mad!

Heat shield rattle I presume, that comes in at 3000 rpm and goes after about 200 more revs - crap really on such an expensive car it seems as though you have a piece of aluminium foil that resonates then stops - god its annoying

MY99 : No rattles to report, so either I'm really lucky or just plain deaf!

A rather annoying squeak from the passenger rear door of my wagon, when the window's open.
And a boomy noise from the exhaust, as I've not worked out where to put the soundproofing....
And a heatshield rattle.

I had a metallic rattle noise which drove me completely mad in the first few days after picking up the car. Turned out to be the zipper on the removable seat cover on the passenger side buzzing against the rest of the zip! It's hidden within the cover.

Others:
1. Faint intermittent rattle from somewhere in the driver's door.
2. Squeak from instrument binnacle which goes if I squeeze the top part of the dash above it.
3. Terrible CD player.

The tension rods for the boot lid rattle the loudest, closely followed by "something" on the passenger side b-pillar and occasionally the heater fan does an impression of det, sounds exactly like it if it does it when your booting it :roleyes:
