Rear Deck Noise
Howdy again all,
Did a couple of google searches as well as a few forum searches on my problem before hand. Just wanted to make it clear before I get trolled or flamed.
My 98 camry has always had this rattling noise in the rear deck. I have (what I believe to be) aftermarket Pioneer 6x9s. I had a tolerable rattle, but now that I installed a single Pioneer 12" sub in the trunk, the rattling is SO much worse. I have read it could be retaining screws, plastic clips, busted sub, bad sub box, and even might be the license plate, tire well, or spare tire retaining rod.
Well, I know it isn't the sub because the rattle was pre-existing. I know it isn't the License plate - because I don't have one... I kid, but I know it isn't the license plate. The spare tire rod is tight and the tire well has nothing that could cause vibrations from what I can tell. The posts and google searches I attempted are dated so far back that the pictures have fallen off of servers or the information is convoluted.
I did get this one nice search but he was talking about 'four holes of which three we could see in the pic' but I did not see what he was talking about. I read the entire post, looked at all the pictures, and still was at a loss.
I do not want to buy this expensive sounding material that supposedly dampens rattle. This guy said it worked by putting 2-sided tape on the flat surface of the deck and then pounding the cover back in place. My thing is, I don't know if this applies to my car and if I should put some on the clips that hold the cover on.
Any help appreciated.
Oh, just to say, I have Pioneer 5 3/4" in my front doors and Pioneer head unit... love my Pioneers.
