I said the same thing about 5k miles back.. and everyone thought i was werid!!!! I had about 5 rattles at first, but then around 10k miles they were all gone. My car is pretty soild now. :) :)

I think we over loved our cars. ;)
Ha ha, ish because we are good too our bitches, I mean our cars! So the rattles don't haunt me no more! He he...
I hear more rattles then ever!!! Other then the steering wheel....when I was taking my mom to the market...i turned off my music....and I hear all sorts of crap in the rear! :sqnteek: and I have nothing in the trunk..my trunk is empty! I wish my car was the day I bought it.....awesome... :p
well ever since i got my sunroof and seat belt fixed i havent' heard a thing :)
Rattle free at 1k miles. :D

My CLS was rattle-free at 28k once I got the sunroof TSB done.

I wonder if they FINALLY decided to use the magic Acura teflon tape from the factory. :rolleyes:

Mine didn't escape the dreaded rattles! haha..I shouldv'e wait the 3 extra weeks for a '03 :p
I just went and checked my TLS - it has a rubber "lip" underneath the front edge of the moving piece of the sunroof - maybe that quietens the sunroof?
My only rattle was the sunroof and it was fixed. 60K+ miles and still no rattle.:bigok:
I've had three different rattles come and go in the last month or so. Buzzing rearview mirror--now quiet. Metallic clanking noise from behind the glove compartment--now gone. Creaking from the rear seat--now gone as well.

I think it's the temperature. I remember my 97 Accord being the same way: when the temp drops below 50 deg F all kinds of rattles and squeaks start coming out, and as soon as it gets warm, the car feels super solid.

BTW, I always drive with the radio off, except for the occasional day or two. I love listening to the "music" of the engine! :D
