My 01 Civic is doing great so far. I love the fuel milage, and the handling. One thing though that is starting to get a bit on my nerves are these random rattles that seem to be coming from EVERYWHERE! The first major rattle I noticed was in the aftermarket cd player that came with the car, so looked into it, and found the installer had not even bolted the cdplayer to the mounting brackets, dumb. I put mine in and it stopped. The second rattle that im hearing is from the rear driver side door, its the door handle and when I open and shut the door I can hear it rattle. The other rattles seem to be coming from the front door panels. How can I get the dealer to fix these? Is it covered under warrenty? Do they have some rattle checking machine? Are civics famous for interior rattles? Or did I just get another cursed car?

my drivers door has somewhat of a rattle too but I hear the 7th gens are a little notorious for trunk and rear deck rattles as well. 7thgencivic.com ...somwhere on there has all the spots and how to fix it...i just dont remember where...

Oh and dealerships do have a rattle checking machine...its called their ears.

found the trunk and rear deck...I know thats not what youre really looking for but maybe yours is rattling anyways - http://www.7thgencivic.com/forum/mes...threadid=18504

You could always take off your door panels and then drive around the local streets and try and find it yourself and then remedy the situation w/ some rubber cement (that works by the way if 2 parts are vibrating together) between the parts (DO NOT glue them together
