Anyone have a rattle that moves around?

I mean,one day the drivers windshield piller rattles a little,the next both are rattling,then one of the door panels,but no rattle in the pillars.I only drive my car on weekends,and this weekend its a rattle I can't locate in the dash.I think its on the passengers side up close to the window where I can't reach and drive at the same time.Sounds like a BB bouncing at all speeds.Anyway,just wonder if some of you have the same experiances.Oh,sometimes there are no rattles at all.

i have 2 rattles in my dash and 4 rattles from my front passenger seat, and i've also had a rattle from each front door, the centre console box, the lid for that box and also one from behind the glovebox. they don't all happen at the same time, so yes i could say i have a rattle that moves around as well :)

the 8th gen civic is quite a gamble on build quality if you ask me. i'm up to fault #27.

I had the same rattles, Honda replaced my a-pilar mouldings. I also had the dash rattle and they replaced my radio, said it was coming from the face on it? The other rattles I have had to fix myself because when you take your car in to worked on and the mechanic drives it around the block and says he can't make it rattle, a little bit of bs on his part, I was forced to fix it to keep myself sane.

yeah i know what you mean. i've done the same for my centre console and door rattles, but the dash, airbag and seat rattles are just plain unsafe / way too much to expect a customer to do.
