Hey All,

Just got a new presara SEPT 09 only done 1500km's sent the car back to the dealer ship because of rattles in the rear and in the L/H Side B Piller (where the drivers seatbelt is)

They Found that in the rear their was a spot weld missing in the parcel shelf so they regapped it, all good.

But they could not find what was the Rattle in the B piller, I have taken it apart myself and still have not had luck in locating the slight spring type of Rattle.

Does any one have any ideas on what it might be ???? please help as I cant stand rattles

Thanks heaps in advance...

could be the spring in the latch which enables you to adjust the height of the seatbelt.

without looking at it... you could unclip the spring, and put another twist in the coil. could make it firmer, reducing the rattle.

I have put some thick grease on it, I know messy............ but still rattles and what makes things worse it not consistent, some times a straigh road and it starts to rattle some times start getting bumbs and no rattle.........driving me nuts

Sigh*.. Even after 2 years.. Still no improvements from Toyota for this issue.. Few people did go back few times to the dealer until the rattles actually stopped. Maybe that's what you should do.. :lol:

Yeah. Get that one quite a bit. It's just one of the many different rattles that have been noted on the Aurion:

Rattles in your Aurion

One rattle I forgot to mention is the front passenger seatbelt. Nothing that one can easily fix, just a design flaw. If you are driving without a passenger in the front, the seatbelt buckle keeps knocking against the plastic trim. Kind of annoys me sometimes.

Happens every time i dont have a service tech in the car from toyota, held the seat belt while driving applied pressure to the window, applied pressure to the seat belt.......

Been to toyota three times, two our three techs have herd the noise, but the main wants me to bring the car in, he is going to be doing it himself, as he is intrugued

the rattle is coming from the drivers side B piller so the seat belt is plugged inn, and it right in your ear........ hoping to have it sorted next week................

      Vibration through body (not steering wheel) under acceleration

      Well, new tyres, a proper wheel balance seems to have done about 90% of the trick - the car now drives like it once did. The only thing is that a wheel bearing was called out as "completely stuffed" and as it is so bad, the only way to fix due to wear on the knuckle is to replace the whole thing. Quoted $600 for the repair and no parts for this until mid next week. Once this is replaced I will update if back to 100% or still more problems. I was thinking that the aftermarket CV shafts could be to blame - very glad this turned out not to be the case.

      New to Toyota - 2005 Corolla Sportivo!

      Long time no update. In all honesty, not an awful lot to update on. Life has been super busy and inbetween life, I get a chance here and there to clean the beast and also arrange for the usual 5000 km oil change. The car is showing it's age with more noticeable paint fade on the roof. After some time I've decided to order the parts to fix my slow power steering leak. After receiving the quote from Toyota, I was able to get the parts from overseas for not even a 1/3 of the cost it would've cost me to order here. The parts are due here in 2-3 weeks and I'm thinking of getting this done with the major service which will be due later this year at some point seenig as the car is quickly approaching 293000 kms this month. Other than that, I'm still enjoying driving the car and the money spent late last year was well worth it.

      Vibration through body (not steering wheel) under acceleration

      I've noticed the same issue after changing the front shocks from OEM to KYB - and while I don't think the shocks are to blame, it could be that there's been an issue which the old shocks covered up by not working at all after 230,000kms. I've also changed the CV joints in mine, replaced the front suspension bushings; hoping that a wheel alignment and new tyres helps this - will post back in the morning the result. Adam,
