First make sure the little magnetic clip for the rear seat belt is clipped. It occasionally can bounce around.

so many possibilities. for me it's the door wood trim. try to push on them and see if it goes away

always try to push on the rear side seat panel (right above the speakers)

Default Rattling all over!

I am having the same problem. When I turn up the bass on the stereo I hear a rattling noise coming from the rear. Initially I thought I blew the subwoofer, but the sound is clean. It seems like something is loose back there.

Any thoughts?

Also, whenever I go over bumpy roads, it seems that there is a lot of rattling noise coming from the backseat area. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!!

for me, the rattling sounded like it was coming from behind the back seat also but it turned out to be the little glass piece between the rear head rests.
Jiggle it a little like I did and maybe the rattling will go away.

It's very easy to pull the rear seats out. Once you've done it a couple of times, you can take the whole thing out in <5 min.

Pull the rear seat out and find your rattle...then put it all back together.
