Well, I found the answer to one of my problems that has made me wonder for some time on my 06 Sedona LX. There would be a knocking sound coming from behind the glove box when I would turn off the van, like 5 or 6 knocks and then stop. Turns out it is an actuator that controls a HVAC door and I don't know if it working properly but tomorrow I am going to the dealer to have them fix it. Just thought I would let you all know.

steering wheel whine

Don't know if others have experienced this but I get a slight whine coming from the steering wheel column. It is only there after the a/c has been running for a while and sounds like rubber rubbing against each other. Also you can only hear it when you turn the wheel, not all the time. I am sure it has to do with heat and something expanding just a little to much, not a big issue but it does annoy me. I will let you know what the fix is when I know.

Did you ever get the issue with the knocking sound from behind the glove box resolved? I'm taking my 2006 Sedona in tomorrow for the same issue.

Hey,
I'm sorry I have not. I just had business trips come up and this and that, newborn baby and what not and have not had time to leave it over there for them to check it out. It does not seems to affect anything that I can tell. Please let me know what they say and or do.
Thanks,
Daniel

Has anyone had or has a problem with some nasty squeaking coming from the rear of van? I have a 07 Entourage bought in 6 / 06. The plate at bottom of drivers door says it was built by Kia. Do you have a simple solution? I have had no problem of wind noise coming from sliding doors, ( don't have the cross rails), or having power sliding door malfunctions ( as to the Entourage forum). Other than the squeaking I'm very pleased. I got a little over 24,000 miles on it.

rattle or clacking sound from the rear

On my 06 Sedona I had a rattle from the rear door and it was from the lock, or where the lock met the door frame on the rear door. I took WD 40 and sprayed the lock on the door itself, not the key hole, inside the lock and all around and no more rattle. Hope this helps.

I have an 06 Sedona with 17,600 miles and have experienced the same sound. Sometimes it sounds like the speedometer has a dry bearing only above 70 MPH. The problem is intermitten and is becoming less frequent almost to the point of non existence, would have the dealer look at it but I'm sure the problem wouldn't show itself during their analysis, I'm sure.

Concerning the rattle or squeak from the rear of the vehicle. The noise could be caused by the rear sear not being fully latched to the floor. This accounts for several sounds everyone hears from the rear of the vehicle. Lastly, you can get a rattle sound from improperly stored rear seat belts also.

I totally agree that all those can cause rattles. One trick with the rear seats is you have to make sure you let the release strap go as you are folding the seat back into place so it grabs on the latch correctly. As far as the rear rattle on mine, I went through everything. Even checking the jack and tools. I ended up having my wife drive as I sat in the trunk to figure it out and sure enough it was coming from the lock latch. I have no idea what was rattling but I narrowed it down to there for sure. Also, mine would only rattle over little bumps in the road and here in PR that is 85% of the road. Nothing was loose so I sprayed it with WD 40 and it went away...lol... We shall see if it comes back soon.
