Rattles from loud SPT exhaust (factory installed) and Harmon-Kardon stereo. Not all rattles were fixed. I will be attempting to fix them myself at a later date (by adjusting clips and adding batting). Small paint chip on the body of the car where the trunk corner meets the body. Only noticed due to forums. There was a TSB for this but my VIN is not included. Pictures submitted to SOA. Awaiting response. | ||
