Angry ahhh! RATTLES

I swear my tl right now is just one big rattle, it sucks sooo bad! I just noticed them all today, the infamous moonroof rattle came and theres something in the back it sounds like by the sub on the shelf back there and then there also seems to be one in the drivers side rear wheel i dont know, any suggestions on what they could be

BTW- my tl only has 2K miles on it which makes this even more maddening and i dont have a dealership in town!

What's the sound like... my TLS is pretty much rattle free now after they put tape around the sunroof.... HOWEVER, there is one last sound, which is coming from back.... at first it sounds like rattle shelf, but it's not.... if your rattle sounds like flapping/ticking mixed sound from right behind(or around there)rear right passenger side.... go outside, and look underside the car.... right under where rear right passenger would sit, there is a black metal box with lines going into it(I think it's something related to ABS/VSC)... tap it.... see if it rattles..... I gonna have dealer fix mine the next service....

if you have a rattle from back of the driver side
it could be the trunk release cable
go in the trunk and tap the cable and see if that is the problem, if it is, then wrap some foam around it
