Hey guys,

I just wanted to see if i was alone or other people are experience this. I\'m getting little creeks all around the interior of the car. One example is pulling into a driveway at an angle. When the front portion of the car goes over the curb, the roof makes an annoying creeking sound. Another example is driving straight on a relatively bump free road. Everytime I go over a tiny bump, I\'m getting rattling sounds from the dash area...

Little things like this are becoming more frequent and considering i don\'t have an aftermarket system, stiffer springs etc, only thing that can happen from here is for the problem to get worse..

Anyone else? If so, have you done anything about it?

Try unlocking your steering telescopic/tilt and relocking it....

I have an 05 with 5000KM and at times notice a rattle, very slight in the roof area around the moon roof. I have the GFX with the 17 inches wheels that make the ride a lot harsher than say 15\" or 16\"
this in turn jars the car harder which can contribute to plastic rubbibg against plastic, I wonder if the weather, hi temperature also contibutes, expands and rubs. But till now no other rattles but I am sure I will get a few more.

I get the creaking out of the driveway pull out ALL THE TIME. IDENTICAL to what you described; pulling in/out on an angel the roof and especially in the trunk area. I always thought it was somehow related to my accident but I guess its normal
