In the back swing out door, open your jack compartment. Check to make sure everything is tied down securely. Had a rattle back there and that solved it. Got the same noises in the front as well as the sunroof. Happens more during cold weather. It's in the 90's now, no real issues. Pulled the sunroof sunshade up a couple of inches when the roof is open and that seemed to stop the sunroof rattle. The dealership checked the noise upfront in the dash and said it was plastic pieces of the dash and pillar expanding and contacting with cold/heat. Made sense why during warmer weather the noise wasn't there. Passenger seat rattles some. Try repositioning the seatback at different angles. Won't solve it, but may reduce the frequency. Drive smooth. Good luck.

also check seat belt reciever on pass side . if mine is just right it rattles on the center consul moving it slightly stops that rattle . no problem when nav4 is in her seat

Thank you for all of your helpful posts - you know who you are!!!

After spending some way too obsessive/compulsive time trying to figure out the front seat rattle, it seems that the rattle is coming from the track when the seat is not locked into position. Like if somebody adjusts the seat and it ends up "between positions" or between notches on the adjustment rail, it shakes a bit. I found that if I simply push it forward or back a notch - no rattle.

I also spent some hot and sweaty time in the cargo area - it is in the upper 90's now - and specifically looked at the jack and stuff in that aft compartment. I checked the window wiper mechanism too. Nothing seemed to be able to make the sound I have been hearing. I am impressed by the hanging hardware and little fabric package they used for the jack. I reallt think the noise is coming from the little extension arm that secures the back door. I removed it and will see if that was what causes the rattle in the back.

You can setup an Ignore List if that is the type of thing you are looking for

lance-n, any success in quieting your rear cargo noise? The early post was pointing at the leaf springs.

for front noises,check the handbrake cable rubbing on the chassis were the left front mud flap would be,if you have this squeeking noise,it sounds as if its coming from the front left footwell but is actually outside!
