Lexus ES 2013+ :: Slight Rattling Noise Coming From Console Area

Experienced a rattle coming from the console area... a week or two ago I was driving home from work and I heard a "slight" rattle noise.. it sounded as if it was coming from the dash area... This concerned me because when I first bought my car about 18 months or so ago, there was a very annoying squeak in the dash when the temp dropped below 50 degrees... I took it back to the dealer several times for that squeak, and finally a young tech there figured out the problem and fixed it.. still quiet to this day... so anyway I'm hearing this very faint rattle sound ( on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the loudest, this would be a 2 or a 3 ) and it appears to be from the dash area...

I keep feeling around and putting pressure on different parts of the dash with no luck... then quite by accident I laid my hand across the counsel and as soon as my fingers pressed up against the round that selects eco / normal / or sport, the rattle stopped... removed my hand, rattle started again, just put one finger on the round and the rattle stopped...

So I had the car into the dealership for oil and filter change saturday and I saw that same tech that fixed my squeak last year... told him about the issue and while the car was in the shop he pulled the console.. said he couldn't find anything really wrong except that some of the clips were not lined up.. he didn't know if it would work but he said he insulated all the clips and a few other areas inside the console with some thick felt... charged me nothing... zero.... Don't know if the problem is permanently fixed, but I have not heard it in the two days since...

Camry :: Creaking Noise Seems To Be Coming From The Roof

When I turn or go over speed bumps/drive way entries or anything that seems to move my suspension around I hear a creaking noise from what seems to be the roof of my car. It's like metal rubbing on metal and it's pretty apparent. Is this something I should be concerned about? Or something other people have had? I've had this Camry for almost a month, it has 53k miles and was a corporate fleet vehicle before I purchased it.

Touareg :: 2004 - Roof Leak / Significant Rain Drip From Overhead Console

I have a 2004 Touareg V8 (55K miles). Recently I've noted significant rain drippage from the overhead console (sunroof equipped). I've reviewed this forum and note some previous communications regarding similar leakage, which apparently was attributable to poor seals between the outer skin and the sunroof structure (and there has been a TSB released for cars under New Car Warranty).

Is there a system of drains that are accessible (as in my 2000 Jetta, which drains through channels in the door posts) which could become clogged, and which I could unclog (as in my Jetta), before I spend the money and hassle of taking my Touareg to the dealer/service person?

Camry :: Rattling Noise Coming From Back End In 2004 SE?

Experienced a rattling noise coming from the back end (trunk area). I had the mechanic look to see what the noise was related to and he tightened the spare tire in the trunk but the noise continues to happen intermittently

We notice it most when we are stopped at a traffic light, but it does occur when while driving.

A wheel bearing had to be replaced. I apparently can't drive, as I must have hit a pot hole.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: How To Get Inner Liner For Front Roof Console - Radio Wiring Same In Vehicle Side

1) How to get the inner liner for the front roof console (cubby and sunglass holder only no comp) out? I am planning on adding a couple of switches up there and need to clearance it in a couple of spots.

2) Is the wiring on the stock radio the same colors as the wiring harness on the vehicle side? Looking at changing out for a touchscreen (for rear cameras and bluetooth for my phone) and the one I am looking at needs to be wired in, and was looking at just cutting the plug off the radio and wiring to that instead of cutting into the harness on the truck side.

Touareg :: After Mounting Roof Rack Loud Sound Coming

In preparing for my end of lease inspection, I mounted my '04 roof racks back on my Treg, and a few days later, I noticed this very loud hmmm/vibration, sounding almost like a steady fog horn, coming from behind me. It lasted about ten seconds, and at first, all I could think of was "that is not us! Until a few minutes later, when it recurred, and I realized that it was probably going to be speed dependent. I eventually realized that the one thing that was different since the prior week was that I put the racks back on the car. When I installed them, I dropped them into their recessed slots, and slid them back to the rear, where I think they are supposed to make the least noise.

Well, not anymore. I think I have to either slide one forward, say to the next detent in the tracks, or get the dealer to back the X3 up better. I think I will slide the forward rack up some, or take them both out for the last month of the lease.

Touareg :: Vibration Coming From Roof Rack Or Rear Of Vehicle?

Vibration coming from either the roof rack or rear of the vehicle? I seem to get it in cold weather sometimes or when I accelerate from between 40 and about 60 mph. I have checked to see if the roof rack needs tightening but it looks good. Of course, every time I bring in for service, guess what, they cannot replicate the sound.

Camry 2012+ :: SE Never Ending Roof Noise?

Took in 4 months ago for the body flex popping. Repaired per the TSB with roof shims. While doing so the dealership creased my roof liner, got grease on my roof shade, scratched the overhead console , and left a scratch on the Nav trim bezel. Needless to say I flipped out! All were replaced at the expense to the dealer. Wife saw the bill which was $2k-billed under warranty repair as apposed to sloppy workmanship in the service department.

Apparently tried to fold the roof liner and left a small crease according to them....actually it was 2ft long on the drivers side. Before they put the new liner in I suggested just pull the seats and center console so they didn't crease the new liner,amazingly it worked. They had my car for a total of 8 days on two separate occasions. I guess I can be a certified tech now.

A month after the popping was gone but a rattle developed on the same side(driver's side). After inspecting I noticed that the roof was off kilter and misaligned slightly. Wife said to let it go till the next oil change which is tomorrow at a different dealership. Apparently there is yet another fix with felt tape or something. Car is only 10 months old and I am about to loose my mind with all the rattles and noises on the cheap plastic interior. On a side note, I just got myself a new 2013 Accord EX-l. It may not be as sporty as my wife's Camry but boy is the fit and finish on the interior done right. Yes there is still plastic but its not the cheap feeling,light weight brushed steel crap that is in my Camry.

Touareg :: Wind Noise Coming At Highways After Roof Racks Are Separated

As it is, my roof racks are separated, as if they were going to carry skis or something else on them. I notice a typical wind noise at highways speeds, not unpleasant, but I wonder if I put them together at the rear, or took them off altogether, it would make much difference. Also, as I take off on cold mornings, I notice exhaust fumes collect on the rear window, then immediately evaporate away.

Ford Excursion :: Roof Leak / Water Coming From Overhead Compartment

Iv got a 00' Ex with water coming from the overhead compartment. The wires for the fuel mileage reader were eaten by a dog some time ago and the only electrical that look like are up there will be the controls for the rear A/C and heat. Any culprits for this type of leak? Iv done some searches, read through a few threads and haven't found anything with the same issue as mine. I will pull down the overhead compartment this week if i have time to check it but hopefully the rain stops soon. Ill try and get some pics after work today.

Edit: The water is dripping from that compartment right between where the face of the fuel mileage reader and base of the compartment go together if that makes any sense. But its just enough water to feel up my cup holder to about 1/5 full so not much but im not sure how long its been raining. Also no water is dripping/running down windshield.
