Hi everyone,

I just bought a coupe a month ago and now I start to hear interior noise on the passenger side. The driver side is not much noise. I don't think I heard the noise during my first few weeks of ownership, but then I could be wrong. So does anyone experience this as well?

thanks.

I have my 08 coupe for about 3 months and thats the only complaint I have im comming from a 08 maxima.. Between the driver seat moving a bit foward on breaking sqeeks and rattling from the inside it drives me crazy.. At least the exhaust covers most of it up. I have not had much time to investigate it all and since its getting colder im not even in the mood but i hope its just all normal sounds for this car. I had a 07 altima sedan that this did not happen to.. But I must say the car isnt as smooth as the max but i love it 1000 times better sounds and all

On coilovers, there's a bunch of fun noises from the cabin. My windshield creaks, my moonroof creaks, the passenger seat-belt rattles against the B-pillar when nobody's in the car with me. Fun fun fun!

You're absolutely right about the passenger seat belt rattling. I have to adjust the seat all the time after the passenger leaves otherwise the noise just keeps bugging me. Aslo I hear all the noise from the cabin and other squeekling sound from the passenger door and thought my door is getting loose or something. But the wind and road noise are less quieter than the interior noise. One weird thing is that altima sedan is more quieter than the coupe. I drove 2010 altima sedan 2.5s two weeks ago on freeway and didn't hear the same type of noise or amount of noise makes in my coupe 2.5s. So I'm curious and hoping that all the sounds are normal.
Maybe I should install nizmo exhaust just like nissansp to cover all the noise.

Don't forget the noise from the vanity mirrors :/ the moonroof creaking has to be the worst though

That reminds me: my driver's side sun shade is hanging low. The plastic piece that's supposed to line up with the headliner has about a half-inch gap on the end that faces me, and I can see the screw inside. I'm tempted to just hit it with a hammer 'til the screw pops back up there...

Try sliding out the plastic extension piece from the visor about an 1". Sounds weird but it stopped an annoying rattle I had

Mine doesn't rattle, it just hangs down and I can't stop looking at the gap.

Remember, as it gets colder you will hear more rattles as well.

What noises, just the passenger seat belt buckle vibrating on the door when I have the stereo cranked.
