Consistent rattle at around 4200 RPM
 
Curious to see if anyone else has a consistent rattle in their BRZ at around 4200 RPM especially in cooler / near freezing temperature?

They are lightweight cars made of plastic and metal that contracts in the cold. There are rattles, pops, squeaks, whistles, and a whole concert going on most of the winter. Could be just about anything. If you can record the rattle or give more info we can try to guess what it is.

The cause of the rattles is that you bought a Subaru. That's just how we roll.

The commercials say love is what makes a Subaru a Subaru, but it's really thin paint and interior rattles. And scratches on frameless windows. I'm three for three on all three Subarus I've had.

Bull. Body parts just shrink a little in the cold. On the car as well.
