BODY
Jingling Noise From Rear
SYMPTOM
A jingling noise is heard from the rear when driving on bumpy roads.
PROBABLE CAUSE
The sounds of the rear suspension springs and damper valves working are being transmitted into the passenger compartment.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Insulate the top of the rear dampers with EPT.
1.
Remove the trunk side trim panels.
2.
Cut four 15-inch-long pieces of EPT 10T sealer.
3.
Apply two overlapping pieces of the EPT 10T sealer over the top of a rear damper and mount. Leave some clearance above the center rod so the
damper does not pull the sealer loose as it moves up and down.
4.
Repeat step 3 on the other rear damper.
5.
Reinstall the trunk side trim panels.
