is there a TL without rattles ?

does anyone have a TL that doesn't have any rattles or squeaks?

I went to the dealer and he said they rarely have anyone come in with rattle or squeak problems ...

Yeah, a TL that is not driven.

Seriously, every car has rattles (from the cheapest to the most expensive).

My friend's Mercedes E320 has rattles and so does my dad's Legend. But my TL rattles more than both of their cars combined.

Thumbs down Rattles & squeeks abound...

I hate rattles more than anything in a car. Not a sign of quality in my book. That's BS when they say every car rattles. I have yet to hear them in a Lexus, or even my old accord.

Roof rattles,
seat back squeeks,
AC fan clatters on high speeds

Can't wait to hear the next one to pop up.

i've experienced a lot of rattles.

first from sunroof and center console. sunroof is now fixed. center console some clips were replaced, it still rattles, when i rest my arm on it.

sometimes, when i turn, slowly, like 5-10 mph, i hear like a squeak.

the center console is very annoying and i'm lazy soi like to rest my arm on it. but then it rattles a lot.
