I have a rattle in the top of my coupe that drives me crazy. I haven't taken it in to dealer because I try and stay out of their shops if at all possible. Has anyone else experienced this and if so what was the fix? Thanks!

Hi Chuck my aftermarket exhaust on my C6 vibrates one of the plastic panels in my trunk area, and drives me up the wall during excelleration. Is this a consistant rattle or when does it mostly occur?

The rattle is definately in the top because when it is out the rattle is gone. The rattle is noticed mainly when I hit bumps.

Just one more thing for me not to have to worry about with the Fixed Roof coupe :D

Are you missing any pieces of weather stripping? maybe you can inspect the rubber and see where it is not making as much contact and install a little one sided thin weather stripping as a shim of sorts? Just a thought.
