only when it's really cold out

 

Tint Protector Felt has killed ALL my rattles and sqeeks in 5 of my cars! It just like the OEM stuff. Wraps around things well and sticks like crazy. It's thin and easy.

 

Are you sure thats where it is? I get a noise that sounds like that when on the highway with the rpms a bit higher than regular cruise.. been driving me crazy press all over the center console & cupholder.. today after a new round of this I rested my hand on the parking brake and.. it stopped!

So any parking brake rattle solutions?

 

Tighten up slack in cable?

 

Think it's just the handle itself because if squeeze it/rest my hand the right way it stops... but I need to figure it, driving me crazy. Of course I can't recreate it at a stop when I can really look down at it

 

... just started getting this in mine, too. It seems like it's the release button for the brake lever... if I place my finger on the button, the rattle stops. It seems that there was a known brake handle lever rattle issue a while ago... does anybody know of, or remember the fix?

 

Hmmm mine never seemed to be the button itself. Guess I have a few months to think about the potential spots while its hibernating, and yes it did annoy the crap outta me on the drive to my storage spot.

 

All my creeks and squeaks are isolated to the area where the dash top butts up against the lower part of the windhshield. It fustrates me because there is no easy disassembly of the dash top which requires the entire dash to be taken out. I can however reach my hand up from the bottom of the dash to a couple of the locations. I may try stuffing some flat foam to see if it helps. My remedy for now is to just turn the radio up so I don't hear it.

 

That is what guys have done with my Subaru, used like weather stripping shoved where the dash meets the windshield, do it uniformly and no one will notice. I need to do my Subaru, its fine during the warm months, but come the colder something contracts & it squeaks/pops.

 

I've been having the exact same issue for a while now. Anybody figure this out yet?

When you say you removed the mufflers, does that mean you just took them off and did not install something in their place or secure the exhaust pipes?

 

 

You will have to find a way to either secure the pipes under the car or replace the mufflers with a straight pipe that has hangers the fit the stock muffler hanger points. A competent muffler shop might be able to help.
