Rattle vibration mystery solved Posted by JeffR [Email] (#2860) [Profile/Gallery] (more from JeffR) on Tue, 1 Jan 2019 20:23:32 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
My 2002 9-3 with 151k had an annoying vibration/rattle that seemed to come from the right side of the car. Then it seemed like the dashboard and glove box was the culprit.
I had just replaced the transmission mount and the right side mount, so I was worried something was coming loose.
Turns out that I had the moonroof tilted open at the time and if I pushed up on the ceiling of the car the vibration stopped. With the moonroof in the closed position, the sound went away.
Could it be a worn rubber seal causing metal on metal contact?
Drove me NUTS until I figured it out.
Hope this is helpful to someone else.
