Rattle Coming From Back Seat Area

[GaryC]

High pitched rattle coming from back seat area when hitting a bump going over uneven surface.

Bloody annoying it is as the rest of the car is rattle free. It is the bottom black plastic baffle under the cupholders in the rear armrest. If you pull the armrest out and the cupholders and then knock the armrest you'll get the rattle. So when the armrest is upright into the seat the black plastic baffle is basically rattling backwards and forwards in the cupholder unit. Not sure how to stop it yet without messing up the operation of cupholders but at least I know what it is. So if anyone has experienced this rattle this is the answer.

have you tried just putting the armrest down. Mine is always down and has never rattled.

I would imagine that if you tighten the spring it would cure it though...
