Clicking/rattle in new TSX
I just bought a 05 TSX (silver with black interior and no navi). I test drove it and heard no noises and drive it home from the dealership a few days ago. Got in it and drove to work this morning and there is a clicking noise coming from around the radio or passenger side when I hit a little bump. Anyone else ever have something like this happen? Seems strange that this would start when the car was sitting in my garage!!!

Sounds like you've got the dashboard/windshield rattle: https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18834

Sounds like exactly what I am hearing. My outside temp said about 25 this morning and it was about 45 when I test drove. I think I will get the car in while it is cold and they can hear it. Thanks again.

Sounds stupid but I found that some rattles on that side of the car were coming from the metal part of the passenger seat belt. It would slap the plastic wall when driving over bumps.

I've also been hearing rattles from the driver's side of the car...but it doesn't always happen...it almost sounds like it's coming from the middle pillar (the pillar between the driver and rear door). I'm gonna ask the dealership next week.

I have something similar. Brought it in before xmas, and they replaced the passenger side windshield clip. They said it was loose (supposedly you can reach your fingers in and feel it). However, it didn't fix anything. The same rattle exists.
Haven't been able to pinpoint it, which is super frustrating. Also ticked that they did all that work for no reason.
It sounds like it comes from up near the windshield, but maybe it's somewhere else. Not sure what to do yet.
