Trunk squeak? by mt56
Jan 01, 2006 (11:56 am)
Reply
I have a 2005 TSX, 3500 miles on it, and it has started to make this squeaking noise, which appears to come from the trunk area. It usually only happens when my car is not level - either the trunk is higher than the rest of the car (when I am on a decline) or the trunk is lower than the rest of the car (when I am on an incline), and I am in the process of turning. Has anyone encountered this? Also, this started when the weather got cold, although I live in Texas. It doesn't get THAT cold.

Popping noise by mt56

My windshield (right side) makes a popping noise. It started when it got cold. I've brought it into the dealership, but of course, my car didn't make the noise that ONE day. I told them there was a TSB out about it (because that's what I've read on the forum) and that the problem is probably misplaced windshield clips, but they can't seem to find it. I still hear this annoying sound. Help!

MT56,
I am also starting to get a popping/creaking sound from passenger side A-pillar/windshield area when driving over uneven road surfaces. I plan to bring to my dealer at my first oil change in a month or so. It seemed to begin as the weather got colder but it doesn't happen all the time. The only thing I noticed is that it doesn't develop the popping sound when it is raining/wet outside. As far as TSB, you can do a search on the net. I m not sure I can give you the link on this forum, but the closest bulletin I found was Acura 2004 TSX Model year, TSB #04042, Date 12/17/2004, listed as rattle from A-Pillar.
 
What is the year of your TSX? How many miles on your car when popping began?
 
Let us know how you do with your dealer since I will going through the same issue soon.

I had a sort of cracking noise coming from the left A-pillar, but I don't know if I would call it "popping." And yes, it wouldn't be present if rain was coming down (how convenient was it that I bought my '05 TSX when it was pouring out???)
 
I went and bought a can of silicone spray, attached the little straw/hose thing, sprayed it underneath the rubber molding, and the cracking noise completely disappeared. It has been 2 months now, and no problems.

Thanks for the tip. I also have a 05 TSX. It sounds like the same problem (snap, crackle, pop!!). I thought it was possibly due to drying out of the windshield seal and the cracking noise was cause by rubbing/friction between the glass and rubber seal. The rain would temporarily lubricate the seal surface and the noise would stop. Anyway, once the pouring rain stops here on the west coast, I will try some silicone spray. I assumed you sprayed under the A-pillar seal between rubber and glass.

Seat Squeaks? by ckiggins

I've been reading other boards and some people are reporting squeaks from the drivers seat (maybe the seat rails). Has anyone here noticed it? If so, how has your dealer dealt with the situation?

Funny you should ask. My wife just pointed out to me that the driver's seat of our '06 TSX is a little squeaky. I hadn't noticed it before, but of course now that she pointed it out to me I notice it! I wish she hadn't said anything!
 
I haven't done anything to try and fix it. I only hear it when I go around sharp curves. Let me know if you come up with a solution. Turning up the radio seems to help.

Do you mean the seat squeaks from the back? I think that I can faintly hear a spring or two.
 
Otherwise, I actually had the driver's seat track replaced under warranty because I could feel it move slightly when cornering hard. I didn't hear it squeak, but if you can feel it move a little the track needs to be replaced. It fixed my problem.

I've got my 2006 TSX in December, the dealer said its the 61st TSX made for 2006 year. Anyway, started noticing the annoying seat sqeaks within a month from the drivers seat. The dealer removed seat and fixed it again after applying some lubricant.
It was quite for probably 2 weeks and after that both the drivers and passenger's seats sqeak now. Its so annoying. I just turn up the volume to escape from this creepy sound.
 
I've 3500 miles on the car and planning to take the car for its first service soon. Hopefully this time the dealer fixes all these sqeaking problems.

Wife's 06 TSX new in March, 5000mi - currently in for service fixing the driver's seat squeak and trying to track down the sunroof rattle. Will post any updates on what they found or solved. Glad we have a forum to collectively voice these issues.
