So finally managed to identify what looks like the final rattle in the car (it has been plagued with these since ~10k miles)
Rear door rubber seal produces the rattle when driving on uneven surfaces. I have identified this after installing self-adhesive felt on all the rear seat touching surfaces and noticed that the annoying sound persists unless I roll down the window (a bit). This is due to body/door shifting while on uneven surfaces...
The same sound starts to re-appear on the driver's door as well, but this one somehow is sorted by rubber treatment products..
I have tried 2:
- Wurth's Rubber Fit
- Gummi Pfelge Stift
Applied both from the outside (where it touches window) and in-between all bends (where rubber would touch another side of the rubber). If I get ANY improvement - it is for very short time. and then it is back again.
Any suggestion how to sort it out? I am losing all my nerves on this one...
Any suggestions? Please...?
