tailgate rattle
hey ppl i posted a threat regarding rattling in the rear and i found the source. So i went to pick my girlfriend up at the airport and she filled the trunk with luggage. It was full and i had to slightly force the tailgate down to close it. The car basically drove rattle free for the whole trip until i emptied the trunk out again. So i guess its the tailgate that is bouncing slightly up and down over bumps that are causing those rattles.when i go over a bump it basically sounds likeim closing my tailgate.Do you guys have the same problem or is my tailgate just kinda loose? my girlfriends honda fit is quieter than my a3 lol. please help, its really getting on my nerves.

RE: tailgate rattle
Here's a method with velcro instead of a shim:

Mine (no velcro or shim) only makes noise over speeds bumps, so I haven't bothered to "fix" it(yet).
