Thin metal tinging sound from under trunk by cwj3620

Whenever I slam my trunk OR slam my drivers side rear door I can hear a rattle which sounds like a loose thin piece of metal. The noise is coming from the drivers side of center and from under the trunk between the bumper maybe. I have had my wife slam the trunk with my head under the rear end but can't seem to find the source, but it is there. The other forum (Hyundai-Forums.com) have a Post going about this. Some can hear it at low speed going over a bump, I can't. Has anyone had this experience? Check it out.

Check to lic. plate bracket on the trunk. I had a similar problem on my XG350
I had to put a small soft rubber bumber behind the plate. My 07 Azera is dead quiet.............

My '06 has the same problem as your XG350. What did they change the '07s?

Hi Grayfox
I have no idea what if any changes were made. If yours make noise try the rubber or felt idea. Place behind lic. plate. Walmart has all kinds pads located in the hardware dept.

The noise I have is definitely not from the license plate area at all, it is coming from underneath the trunk area

RE:25
Have you checked to be certain that the spare tire and tools are properly secured?

YES, there is absolutely no noise from within the trunk the sound is emulating from under the trunk, possibly between the trunk body and the bumper. Read the posts at Hyundai-Forums.com; "Azera": "Rattle in Rear".

OK, I finally went and listened for the "trunk area rattle" and I do hear one when any of the doors are firmly closed.
 
But if I first open the trunk lid, I get no rattle from within. My best guess is that the fuzzy lid cover (which feels rather flexible and does make a little noise when I push on it) is the culprit, and that when the trunk lid is up and somewhat isolated from the body by the hinge support only, the liner doesn't quite get the movement necessary for it to make that little bit of noise...

Was the noise intermittent, and was it more apt to occur during colder weather? I'm beginning to think my dealer thinks I'm nuts as the problem happens so intermittently. The squeaky noise seems to be originating from the front driver side, i.e., where the dash meets the windshield. Every so often, I'll hear a rather loud crack, sort of like a stone hitting the windshield. Given your diagnosis, its as if the cracking noise is related to shifting of the the pillar, as was your problem diagnosed. Albeit, the cracking noise is very infrequent, it's the illusive squeaky noise that is driving me nuts. And again, the squeak seems to only occur in the 20-25 degree outside temp range. Has Hyundai documented your issue as an isolated incident, or a pervasive problem?

Loose rear window screen and bass speaker rattle by jim101
Feb 07, 2008 (7:20 pm)

2006 Limited, Ultimate Package, 19K, 23 months old
 
Shock noise, replaced, end of noise
 
Rear screen started to sag on upper right side and would hit window when going over a bump, one heck of a thump.
 
The rear base speaker has had a rattle from day one if the volume was over 6
 
To fix rear screen requires a lot of patience because to get to the screen assembly you need to remove,
1. the negative battery cable
2. the trunk cover piece just behind the rear seat 2 philips screws when the seat tops are folded down
3. the lower rear seat, remove 2 bolts that are under the cover you just removed, use clean ratchet with extension between lower and upper cushion, push in tabs in front of seat near carpet and remove, an extra set of hands works well
4. both sides of the seat back near the doors, 1 bolt each on bottom, slide piece up and out, disconnect the air bag connector and slip seatbelt through the slit on the bracket
5. the back of the rear seat, 2 bolts in center (1 in each seat section) and the 2 bolts on either side that hold the side of the seat back
6. the bolts that hold seat belts to the floor
7. snap out (I used my finger nail) the round plastic symbol (attached to the frame with a small wire) on the frame around the small rear side window on both sides and remove the torx bolt, the piece then has only one pressure snap holding each side
8. the rear frame on either side next to the package tray that goes to the back window
9. 4 screws on the back of the seat that hold the package tray
10. the package tray, two snap clips on either side, takes some patience as getting them to release is not real easy
11. the package tray behind the screen, four snap clips, this one is a little tricky but it does come out, disconnect connector for rear brake light
12. 4 bolts that hold the screen assembly (2 in front and 2 behind), disconnect connector
 
well that covers the removal, good job
 
Typically the aircraft nut holding the right side has backed off and needs to be re tightened. Remove the 2 small screws holding the plastic end cover and remove.
Using 2 open end metric wrenches, 1 open fits into the assembly and the other is used to tighten the exposed nut until quite snug
 
Replace the assembly in reverse of removal
 
Temporarily put the negative battery cable back on, operate screen to make sure it fits snugly to the top of the rear window when up
 
Now is the time to fix that rear speaker, remove bolts and carefully remove speaker and disconnect the connector
Place several pieces of sponge tape around the speaker frame (I used double sided but only took the cover off one side of the tape) without covering the mounting holes, replace speaker, snug bolts a little at a time until you are happy with the tightness, remember if you leave it to loose you get to do all this again to get back to the bolts, ugh...
 
If your happy, disconnect the negative terminal and replace all the stuff in reverse order
 
The speaker rattle is gone, the window screen does not thump against the window, ye-ha
 
Now, you could take it to the dealer and have them do the work, my bet is they would forget the speaker issue and write it off as normal.
 
Good luck to all, I'm placing my order for the Genesis this week
