Not really, but there is a pretty mean RATTLE coming from the rear deck. Every time I hit a bump in the road, the deck rattles and it's getting irritating. I'm only off on sat/sun and the dealership can only check it on mon-fri, so I'll just do it myself. I'm wondering if anyone has removed the rear deck yet?

So far, I've lowered the rear seats and removed the 5 retaining screw/clips holding the first piece in place. Now I'm wondering what the next step is. I tried pulling the next piece off but it doesn't seem to budge. Is there any clips holding it in place? If anyone knows how remove the deck, could you please give some advice. Thanks in advance.

pulling the whole deck apart is your first move? Why not shoving a piece of small black foam in one of the corners first?

Yeah, rather than just bandage the problem, I'd like to fix it. It sounds like a piece of plastic or some part is touching metal and it vibrates when I hit a bump. Most irritating thing ever, beside stupid drivers
