Headrest Rattle

Well, add another to the list of rattles. I've got a rattle coming from my passenger side headrest. Sounds like a rapid tapping noise. If I hold the headrest it stops. Anyone else experienced it? It's not the typical headrest leather rubbing seat leather noise, either. I've raised it and it actually gets worse. If I put it in the lowest position I get the leather noise, but a diminished headrest rattle. Titling it doesn't seem to remedy it.

Try to raise your headrests slightly up. This fixed the problems at least for my car.

I've tried tilting the headreast and it stopped both the leather noise, and the clicking sound. Worked for me!
