Loose nut rolling around inside door?
 
I have what sounds like a loose nut rolling around inside door. When I brake it rolls forward and it rolls back when I accelerate hard. Anyone else have this?

I don't recall seeing any posts about it recently.
I would take it to your dealer.
Have you had any work done that might involve taking the door panel off?

i have the same thing but i feel like its from the trunk/left backseat

were you working on the car lately? maybe a socket fell inside?

It's not inside the door. I took the inner door panel off and didn't find anything loose in there. Mine started off sounding like it came from the door but now it seems like it's under the passenger seat. Sometimes the rolling stops (seems to catch onto something) but then it randomly starts up again after a while. I don't even know how taking into service will help though.

I have the same problem. Sounds like inside passenger's door, glove box area. Haven't find the solution yet.

Well you could be like me. When I was taking pieces off the trunk to run wires for my rear camera install I dropped a nut in the trunk lid. So now it's rolling around in there. Haven't figured out how I will get it out yet.

I did something similar last night, except it was one of the plastic clips on the trunk wall carpet. Popped it and sent it flying into a hole that goes under the back seat...lost forever.:sigh:
Luckily I haven't heard it rolling around...yet.
@Mexibeetle, good luck finding the cause of the that sound.

I had this noise, it drove me nuts. It sounded like a screw that would roll forwards or backwards depending on if I was stopping or accelerating. It wasn't very consistent, it must've gotten stuck sometimes like someone else said. I ended up pulling up the carpet as much as I could without removing the driver seat and I reached in from the side to feel around. I ended up pulling out a festoon lightbulb, like the one in the dome light. It must have fallen down there before the carpet was installed.

I have what sounds like a loose bolt, marble, or quarter rolling loose in my door. The object rolls front to back when car is in motion accelerating and decelerating. Very annoying. How should I proceed in finding this troubling noise.

The car is only 2 1/2 months old so I can easily bring it to the dealership. I wanted to find and fix the problem ASAP however.

Loose nut? LOL

Jertronic 09-18-2013 05:01 PM

i want to bust this nut, and lose the marbles okay.

warman 10-23-2013 02:36 PM

This is happening to me too. I thought it was something in the glovebox, but I took everything out and it's still making the noise. Anyone find the solution?

Damn... Add another one to the marble in the door club.

No work on the car has been done. Windows tinted MONTHS ago.


I guess I will hope that sdshore's suggestion works:

Otherwise off with the door panel.
