Mine (MY99)...Apart from the usual storage box on top of the dash (don't they all rattle ?)I get another one from behind the dash somewhere ,but only when the cabin warms up .Apart from that not too bad . Anyone else got any to add ? are the Bugeyes/Blobeyes much better ?
Oh and forgot to add piston slap rattle when cold Dave http://www.stopstart.freeserve.co.uk/smilie/mecry.gif |
Had an annoying squeak in the cabin for a while. Couldn't find it at all until i pulled in at a desert petrol station in America. Greasy little fat bloke had a quick look and found it was the missus earring. Sorted it in seconds with a little oil can!!! (P.S. this may not be true!!)

A squeaky sunroof on my 00MY turbo...really annoying but only when its open, so just have to use the aircon instead.
|
Closing the doors with the windows down, sounds like someone dropping a bag of tools!
LOL |
I've got a really annoying one like a screw rolling around inside one of the doors.
Have tried shaking the doors but not hearing anything. Only hear it when going round corners. Have had it for ages but only hear it when cornering and no music playing! Not really that bothered about it but would be nice to get rid of it without stripping the car down! I'll get to it, one day... |
LOL@EvilKyote , yeh forgot about that one :cool:
|
Have an annoying squeak around the drivers side air vent on my blobeye, although have found a temporary fix - I put my foot down and the squeaking noise disappears ;)
|
Any more new age owners ?
|
The sunvisors rattle / vibrate in mine (MY97). Bl**dy annoying, as they're at a pitch where you can still hear them over the stereo, regardless of the volume!
Brakes squeak too, but I think that's par for the course! |
My old N Reg had loads of squeaks n rattles... most annoying was the vibration on the rear view mirror, common problem apparently... and one of the windows whistled above 70 (not that I ever exceded 70 of course) and the sun visors rattled and half the dash.... stopped all those rattles in one easy step, bought a bugeye! but now brand new rattles...
Got a squeak somewhere behind my ash tray. Might be coz it's had the carbon dash fitted... still blimmin iritating. And I think my seat has started to squeak... that's all so far... anymore and I'll have to get an MY03.... Forgot to mention the heat shield rattle when I first got the N Reg, fortunately the garage picked up the tab for that one... [Edited by DVS - 11/11/2003 5:05:44 PM] |
My 03 WRX has one from the glovebox, the clock (cheap n'nasty),plus the passengers door near the tweeter grille. Going to fit upgraded speakers so the door will be sorted!
|
It may be quicker to tell you all what doesn't rattle... :eek:
|
Bugeye STi. My damned drink holder rattles and the passenger side seat belt clip squeaks. Small problems but on long trips it drives you nuts.
|
The metal frame where that hold the ashtray in place
the dash top box this is a damn annoying one cos its right in my left ear... the zip on the net that covers the roof vent buzz's like a wasp/fly... and no matter how much i wiggle/tighten/loosen the zip mesh, it always comes back within seconds! arrrghhh! im going to blue tack it down! /2ob |
pass side windscreen wiper 'buzz's' when going over a hundred on private road officer.....
|
passenger door rattles a bit when you turn the stereo up... need to get in there and tighten everything up..
storage pod on the dash rattles now and then, but that is prob my sunglasses jumping about.. the heatshield on the exhaust, but i think i have sorted that one now... hopefully no-more.. :D |
MY00 @ 80k and
My center pod rattles (of course) - and falls off if you open it. Slight rattle from passenger door. Disclok on floor behind passenger seat likes to rattle. the missus likes to rattle on from the lefthand side of the vehicle :D Andy |
mines actualy not that bad, or it wasnt until i fitted the coilovers :eek:
|
My 98 classic wagon's not too bad for rattles (actually is brill, just the luggage cover), but the NO1 annoying problem is that the windows dont go all the way back up once you've opened them.
If I open the door after the window has gone as far 'up' as it can then pull the up switch I can get another 5-10mm of upward movement. This leads to two things. 1/ After using the front windows the car gets v noisey at speed. 2/ I put the thing through a car wash before I descovered this little problem and found two streams coming along my doors. V annoying..... The other annoying noise the car makes was my exhaust-but I got that fixed. Car's ok otherwise! Tony |
Somewhere on the drivers door I think. If I place/squash a finger between the dashboard and the door it stops - aggravating on a new car. 2003 WRX, 3800 miles,
Oh yeah, the other annying noise I believe is called the stereo!! Brian. |
My 98 (S) / Passenger seat rattles a bit, it’s ok when somebody is sitting on it. I have tried tightening the bolts , but no difference! Just means the stereo has to go up louder!!
Also agree with the door one when windows are open!! Mark |
Mu Bugeye had a rattle so I stuck some paper in the join on the dash to the right of the steering wheel, gone now...luckiy or I would have looned out! |
Got the annoying window problem MY00, passenger side only, have to wind the window up - open the door- and shut it then all is well.
Drivers window/ door makes a cracking sound every now and then, not sure what that is. Passenger seat squeeks when someones is sitting in it. Glove box contents rattle or is it just the glovebox itself.? EVERYTHING rattles when I have the ICE turned up:D But still love driving my scoob, even though it does have a few rattles here and there:) |
big red
top tip try lowering the rear window a bit then wind the front one up then do the rear window afterwards works for me and u dont have to open doors ;) |
none :D and iam not a lair :D
|
Nobody has mentioned the gear lever rattle. Mine's a US spec 2.5 RS MY2000. It comes and goes, even if I hold the shift knob, it still continues to rattle when it feels like it. It is very intermittent. I also hear a ticking sound from the dash heater fan motor, only at lowest fan speed. My wife's '96 Outback (80K+ miles)has a rattling inside the drivers door, again intermittent. I've had many more annoyances on less fun cars, so what?
|
MY02 5-door, had it since new and the only thing that rattles is the missus when I put my foot down.
|
Is there something wrong with my mine?.... i have no persistant rattles, well at least none that can be heard above the exhaust, maybe if i went back to the original i would have all these and more!! :eek:
|
All these rattles and squeaks ! but we still love em eh ? I do get the wind blowing through the seal on the drivers door near the door mirror when driving at the legal limit sometimes .http://www.stopstart.freeserve.co.uk/smilie/jump.gif
keep em coming guys Dave |
Forgot to mention the clutch pedal rattle, anything above 3000RPM rattles like mad,some spring loose/worn asked dealer to fix it last service but it has come back again.
Will try the rear window / front window trick,see if it works.:) |
