5.
Rattle from C-pillar area while driving
-
Bolts beneath 2nd side rail loose?
Remove bolts, Loctite and retighten 2 bolts each side. Tighten bolts as per
Customer Satisfaction Campaign item E, page 9.
6.
Rattle in rear side trim area by rear speaker (only 1995
V/N
up to
s7003000)
-
Seat belt pretensioner tube contacting sheet metal?
Wrap pretensioner in felt tape.
7. Creaking or rattling noise when raising front windows
-
Have updated window rollers been installed? Are they adequately
lubricated?
See Customer Satisfaction Campaign 428, Item G. Install updated rollers
and make sure they are adequately lubed.
Note modified procedure: it is easier to install the modified rollers if you re-
move the
“rear
guide channel” for each front window. You can leave the win-
dow in place. Lower it slightly and install the modified rollers without remov-
ing the glass from the door. Also: with the guide channel removed, it is easier
to properly lubricate the entire channel.
Make sure that the entire INSIDE
surface of the channel is lubricated, and be careful that you DO NOT get any
lubricant on the OUTSIDE of the channel as it will transfer to the window
glass.
8.
Creaking or rattling noise while driving down the road
-
Same as
#7
above.
9.
Squeaking noise from rear when driving with the top raised
-
The most forward rib under access flaps may be rubbing on the gearbox of
the 5th bow motor?
Recheck Tonneau cover latch adjustment. If adjusted properly, grind away
plastic on the forward rib.
