Cup Holder in 03 Rattling
Must be the week for cup holder posts...My cup holder makes this awfull rattle. Anyone else have this problem? How do I take out the cup holder? The cup holder looks to be molded into the console. It is split down the middle like it was made in 2 pieces. When I put pressue on the cupholder the noise stops.
Thanks

I believe he is referring to the fact that the cup holder looks like it is split.
Mine only rattles when stuff is sitting in it, like a soda or something. I use a napkin under the bottle to resolve this problem.

Mine rattles all the time. It actually rattle slightly less with things in it. Do I need to take off the silver trim and remove any screws to take it out?? It does not just pull out! Or at least it sure does not want to come out.

I havent taken it out, but to get inside that console area you need to remove the side trim piece. Grab it by the end at the center console and just pull up it will pop right off. There are screws in there, you might need to remove some, but im not sure. I would just say remove the trim and side panel and look in there and you should get an idea of how to do it.

Fixed my cup holder rattle today. What was causing the rattle on mine was the cup holder rubbing on the trim piece above it. I put a thin piece of rubber tape between the 2 pieces and now it's nice and quiet. I thought I had some other rattles but the car is totally quiet over bumps now. I took the whole thing apart as described by kid_dr but you may be able to fix it by just sticking a piece of cloth or something under the trim piece at the front of the cup holder. This is where the rattle was coming from on mine. I also thought that it would be from the 2 pieces of the cup holder but these were very tight on my car.
