Do a search on this site and you will find many posts on this topic. Many people have rattles and some are known by dealers and will fix them under warranty. Just look around and you will find what you need.

2 of the more common "rattles" are the moonroof and the front passenger seat. The moonroof "rattle" is actually the rubber seal rubbing against the metal edge of the moonroof opening. Acura now has an authorized fix for this. Your dealer can now tape all around the edge of the opening with a special clear thin tape. I had it done about 10 days ago and it has made a world of difference. I would say it has eliminated 99% of the noise from the roof. Apparently the passenger seat rattle is from the leather rubbing between the seatback and the cushion. Try putting something in there (ie. a towel) and see if the "rattle" is gone. I also have a sporadic rattle from somewhere in the dash. Because it doesn't happen too often, I have opted to "live with it" for the time being rather than have the dealer take the dash apart to try to find it.

If you're lucky, some of the rattles are in my FAQ (see sig)
If not, then, uh..... try dropping a foam grenade in your car.
