Thanks Mrbill. There's no one thing that makes it rattle. It's very persistent, just more pronounced on rougher pavement. I'm sure, however, that once I take it to the dealership it will be quiet as a church mouse.
 
The odd thing is it was exceptionally quiet for thew first 3500 miles, then out of no where it developed.
 
The dealership is about 30 minutes away from my house, and it is difficult to find time to leave it there. Oh well, perhaps they will provide a loaner if it will be there for a while.
 
Thanks.

I test drove a CRV a few weeks ago - I expected to like it but was really disappointed with the road noise too.
Ended up scratching it off my list...

I take it that you ruled out anything that you added to the glove box or console?

Well i have black leather interior, and it does get really hot in the summer. But dont think cloth will get uncomfortably hot, only leather will. (I think)

Get tinting. I have black/black leather and it is bearable in the Houston sun. And this summer has been a very, very hot one. AC cools down interiro quickly
 
On the tinting, it will not stick well to the bumps at the top of the back windows and do not get metallic tinting because it can affect the signal quality of the diversity radio antenna. it has to do with shielding cause by the "skin effect". Non-metallic tinting has no effect period!
 
Bottom lin, I personally would only go with the balck interior becuase it looks the best to start with and looks good in thefuture, becuase it does not show discoloration or stains and matches the interior black and non-beige parts much much better.
 
cruis'n in 6th ,

P.S. - The shift knob does get hot sometimes, but even that is not too bad.

Thanks for the input guys. I'm hoping the silver will reflect some of the sun too (I live in Florida).

look at hondapreview.com 6-speed in sedan, VSC, DLR, heated mirrors, 244 horsepower. No mention of LED taillights, but that is supposed to happen also. No pricing yet, But I would expect about a $500 increase.

Accord V6 vs Acura TSX by usafgarrett
Aug 12, 2005 (12:49 pm)

I just wanted to say how funny it is that the European Accord is the Acura TSX in the states. I looked at the Euro prior to ordering an Accord EX-V6 from the states. The only market that they sell both with the Honda nameplate is in Australia. There the TSX(Known as the Euro Accord) goes for $4000 less than the Accord V6. It's amazing how we Americans are so gullable to spend more on a nameplate. Great marketing by Honda!!!
 
 What do you guys think of that??
