One thing i found out that most of noises are comming from the leater rubbing something. I had noises comming from the passenger side. I opened the glove box and flipped the nice leather manual cover and the closed the glave box and the noise is gone. Noticed also, whe I have a passeger and the leather seat is rubbing the side of the door rattling noises came from nowhere. Also anything you put in the door map holders will give noises too. Trust me do a test drive after you remove everything that can be removed from the car and see if you have any noise.

My car doesnt rattle much.

The rattles I do have, have all been isolated and instructions to fix it posted ont he board.

My TL rattled like hell when I had it... a good portion of the rattles were from the leather though like Nashua said.

When I here new rattles in my CL... its usually something I have in the car. Loose change... tic tacs... whatever heh.

As for the loaner... YEA RIGHT. Their not gonna give u a TLS as a loaner!!!

Your lucky if you get an Integra... your really lucky if you get a '00 TL.

thanks adam for your enthusiastic yeh rite to my hopes and dreams of drivin home with a tl-s for a day or so. it would be nice though wouldnt it though. although i wouldnt mind toolin around in a integra or old tl either.

ill check on the things u guys suggested to look at and see if thats where the rattles are from. they are just weird sounds and i cant isolate them yet.

Yea, sometimes I THINK I hear a little bit of rattle comin from the back, it comes and it goes... I think it might have to do w/ the speakers... but it's no big deal cuz most of the time I can't even hear my g/f in the passenger seat cuz the bass hits so hard, haha.
