I hear a small rattling noise coming some where in the roof when I'm driving on the freeway. It's annoying, can't figure out what's causing it, but I got used to it.

I don't have the sunroof, the noise is coming from somewhere inside the roof

The rattling noise in my Evo has disappeared over time... or maybe I've just gotten so used to it that I don't notice it anymore... :roll:

I had the same thing. Pull the pillars off and it is the adhesive holding these 1/2" clear tubing along the whole pillar. it doesnt' hold the tube properly after being heat cycled and makes really loud noise! Move the tubing and hear the noise. Put some silicon in to hold the tubing and you don't!

Hope that helps

I am getting a strange clicking noise where the dash meets the A-pillar.
Only happens on the freeway with the windows up.

I just started to get a little crackling noise coming from the center of the dash up by the vent. Only happens when RPM's are low, makes sense why it's happening, but hasnt happened before. Another thing, last time I had my car in for service at HB mitsu, Josh pulled my car out and parked it, and some ASSHOLE customer came up while he had the door open, and leaned on the door!!! I was like, "You mind?", Josh was looking at him like he was a tool. Now there's a slight rattling noise in the driver door. Total disrespect! I'm gonna take it by there and have Josh check it out.

See above-

BTW, you can see for yourself: pull the insulation off the top where the door meets by the A pillar and the pillar will pop off without any tools. Look at the 1/2" or so clear hose glued there. Move it and voila- the sound. Add silicon= no noise in the pillars...

Hope that helps

The white plastic covers for the seat belt mechanisms in the trunk rattle. I put weather stripping inside the covers to fix that.
