Passanger seat rattle?

KB798 · 04-16-2007, 05:15 AM

I've noticed a rattle coming from the passanger footwell area, and at first I thought it was the glove compartment. The rattling has gotten worse over time, and when I press down firmly on the passanger seat the sound goes away somewhat. Anybody else have any idea what it could be? Any fixes? I did a search but came up with no relevant results.

Spell passenger correctly and try again please. There are a couple relevant threads.

me personally it was that stupid buckle on the pass. side. The buckle was hitting the actual door cover....at least thats what it was for me

I had the same thing, thought it was the kick panel on the pass side. But if I forced my arm on the seat, it would go away.

I ended up sliding the seat all the way back and then tightening the bolt that holds the seat to the rail at the front of the seat rail.

That seems to have sorted it out.

Now, if only I could stop my drivers seat from creaking when I accelerate, I would be peachy...
