Okay, I am not sure if this has been addressed yet or not...but I tried to search for it with rattle as one of my search words, and there were so many results - I think I could have potentially crashed AZ's server - LOL

Anyway, for the life of me, I could not locate the source of my rear deck rattle. It turns out that the rear deck rattle that I was hearing wasn't coming from the rear deck at all. It was coming from a cable, which I believe it the XM cable - that runs down across the right hand side of the trunk - behind the liner.

It turns out - this cable was rattling against the back, right-side of the trunk liner. I fixed this by using some electrical tape and taped the cable directly to the liner so that it wouldn't move over bumps. So far, no rear deck rattle.

Now all I need to do is get rid of my glovebox rattle, rattle behind my stearing wheel, rattle in my seat belt adjuster, drivers side window rattle - zzzzzz....okay, I could be here for awhile!

Anyway...I hope this post helps someone that might have my same problem. Again, I am sorry in advance if this has already been posted!

If it helps, I recently switched from the stock tires to Michelin pilot sports and the seat belt adjuster rattle along with a few others went away

I will try and take some pictures one evening this week when I have some extra time.

There is some sort of cable that runs along the backside of the trunkliner. This is on the right hand side of the trunk. This cable bounces back and forth against the hard plastic backing of the trunk lining - causing an annoying rattle sound. Again, I will try and take some pictures!
