Chirping noise from the Rear Deck/Trunk - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

lupindub · 11-14-2015, 01:35 AM

For me, I will get all kinds of chirping/clicking/rattling/thunking/clunking, or a combination of those depending on the weather. Maybe today it is raining and cold, I will get a tapping noise from the rear deck. Either you get used to it or you're going to go nuts like I did the first couple of month's. These noise come and go and something will be making a noise no matter what. I sure know it wasn't very comforting when other user's told me to "just deal with it" but it is the unfortunate truth for a peace of mind.

Tried removing everything in trunk to isolate? Carpet cover thing, tire, tools...etc?

make sure it is coming from the trunk. I had a rattle like that and it turned out to be the plastic lower piece on the drivers side where the front seat belt attaches too. I placed some caulk on the seam between the upper and lower plastic piece to stop the rattle.

I have also caulked all the wires in the trunk to keep them from moving around , and anything else that looks like it could move. Even caulked down the panels around the spare to prevent any movement.

Now I ride as quiet as a church mouse

Just wondering if you found a solution to this. I have that exact same sound granted mine is a 2013 and when I got back there even in the cabin area with the seats up I cant find anything that moves.

I kinda did. Just re-installed my tail lights and it seems to have gone away.

Try moving your tail light and see if it makes the squeaky sound like in the video.

Hmm at least your not getting loud buzzing sound like I am.

I have squeaks rattles, bangs, and such all the time in this car. It bothers me on occasion, I get motivated to find them all...then I go for a nice drive and I forget about them.

This car was built around compromises, one of them being creature comforts including a quiet cabin.

Simple fix, just go stuff sponge/foam under the rear deck where your finger can go through.
