Noise in Pillar

I have a very annoying noise in the pillar where the front seatbelt attaches over the shoulder. The noise seems to come from a few inches below the attatch point. I only here it when I hit bumps and the best word to describe it would be "tink".

1. Anybody experience this?
2. Can it be fixed? (besides by turning up the radio)
3. I'm not sure what to remove to get behind there, or i would.

I only have about 2500miles left on the warranty. When I asked them to look at it, they said they "could not reproduce it". Funny...I reproduced it hitting a bump in their parking lot on my way out! It's just a hassle to take it back for something so small.

Thanks.

I believe this is a known issue on the TL's. It has to do with the seatbelt tensioners which squeak...Many people on this forum have had this replaced, so go back to the dealership and stand your ground. Tell them that you know this is a known issue on the TL's, and that you want this resolved immediately on your vehicle, or you will contact Acura Customer relations...this should get them to fix the problem.
