< SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS >

SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES

Confirm that the cause of a noise is repaired by test driving the vehicle. Operate the vehicle under the same
conditions as when the noise originally occurred. Refer to the notes on the Diagnostic Worksheet.

Inspection Procedure

INFOID:0000000006483498

Refer to Table of Contents for specific component removal and installation information.

INSTRUMENT PANEL

Most incidents are caused by contact and movement between:
1.

Cluster lid A and instrument panel

2.

Acrylic lens and combination meter housing

3.

Instrument panel to front pillar garnish

4.

Instrument panel to windshield

5.

Instrument panel mounting pins

6.

Wiring harnesses behind the combination meter 

7.

A/C defroster duct and duct joint

These incidents can usually be located by tapping or moving the components to duplicate the noise or by
pressing on the components while driving to stop the noise. Most of these incidents can be repaired by apply-
ing felt cloth tape or silicon spray (in hard to reach areas). Urethane pads can be used to insulate wiring har-
ness.

CAUTION:

Never use silicone spray to isolate a squeak or rattle. If the area is saturated with silicone, the recheck
of repair becomes impossible. 

CENTER CONSOLE

Components to pay attention to include:

1.

Shifter assembly cover to finisher

2.

A/C control unit and cluster lid C

3.

Wiring harnesses behind audio and A/C control unit

The instrument panel repair and isolation procedures also apply to the center console.

DOORS

Pay attention to the following:
1.

Finisher and inner panel making a slapping noise

2.

Inside handle escutcheon to door finisher

3.

Wiring harnesses tapping 

4.

Door striker out of alignment causing a popping noise on starts and stops

Tapping or moving the components or pressing on them while driving to duplicate the conditions can isolate
many of these incidents. The areas can usually be insulated with felt cloth tape or insulator foam blocks to
repair the noise.

TRUNK

Trunk noises are often caused by a loose jack or loose items put into the trunk by the customer.
In addition look for the following:

1.

Trunk lid dumpers out of adjustment

2.

Trunk lid striker out of adjustment 

3.

Trunk lid torsion bars knocking together

4.

A loose license plate or bracket

Most of these incidents can be repaired by adjusting, securing or insulating the item(s) or component(s) caus-
ing the noise.

SUNROOF/HEADLINING

Noises in the sunroof/headlining area can often be traced to one of the following:
1.

Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or seals making a rattle or light knocking noise

2.

Sunvisor shaft shaking in the holder

3.

Front or rear windshield touching headlining and squeaking

Again, pressing on the components to stop the noise while duplicating the conditions can isolate most of these
incidents. Repairs usually consist of insulating with felt cloth tape.

SEATS

When isolating seat noise it is important to note the position the seat is in and the load placed on the seat
when the noise occurs. These conditions should be duplicated when verifying and isolating the cause of the
noise.
Cause of seat noise include: 

1.

Headrest rods and holder 

2.

A squeak between the seat pad cushion and frame 

3.

Rear seatback lock and bracket 

These noises can be isolated by moving or pressing on the suspected components while duplicating the con-
ditions under which the noise occurs. Most of these incidents can be repaired by repositioning the component
or applying urethane tape to the contact area.

UNDERHOOD

Some interior noise may be caused by components under the hood or on the engine wall. The noise is then
transmitted into the passenger compartment.
Causes of transmitted underhood noise include:

1.

Any component mounted to the engine wall

2.

Components that pass through the engine wall

3.

Engine wall mounts and connectors

4.

Loose radiator mounting pins

5.

Hood bumpers out of adjustment 

6.

Hood striker out of adjustment

These noises can be difficult to isolate since they cannot be reached from the interior of the vehicle. The best
method is to secure, move or insulate one component at a time and test drive the vehicle. Also, engine RPM
or load can be changed to isolate the noise. Repairs can usually be made by moving, adjusting, securing, or
insulating the component causing the noise.
