When playing music with low-freq re:bass components at about midway on the volume I was getting horrible rattling. (I think this was posted somewhere before) Anyway, as usual, the dealer knew nothing of this problem. I discovered that the headliner was vibrating against the rear window.

I've tried an esay fix which seems to have eliminated the issue for now...I squeezed some 1 1/2" foam in the headliner at the base of the rear window. It dampens the headliner from rattling against the rear window. I used foam that I had lying around from my p0ker table construction...

Had the same problem and a similar fix. I found my vibration was coming from the three clips that hold the headliner up at the top of the rear window. I just "shimmed" under them with some foam tape and all is good now.

Easy fix to a problem I'm sure others are experiencing.
