A couple of issues
Hello All,
Took delivery of a 2011 ET GLS in mid October for my wife. We really love the car! We do have 2 issues though: 1st: We have what sounds like a marble rolling back and forth on the passenger side. Sometimes it sounds like it's in the bottom of the front door and other times it sounds like it's coming from the bottom of the rear door. I'm guessing that it's under the doors (in the chassis?) since it moves. Any one else experience this? 2nd: The plastic cup in the hatchback door (where your fingers go when closing it) keeps coming out. I stopped by the dealer and they "crazy glued" it back in, but it came out again. We'll be due for our 3000 mile oil change soon and hopefully the dealer will get these two issues fixed. -Len |
Yeah, both of these issues seem like unique errors during assembly. The dealer should be able to fix both. I don't like the idea of using crazy glue to fix anything in your car, though.

Same issues here as well.

Thanks for the replies. I'm guessing the handle must work its way out due to vibration. Jetguy, you have the same noise issue too?

Just a quick follow up. Had the car at the dealer yesterday for the first oil change. They found a 10mm bolt at the bottom of right side pillar between the front and back doors. One of the service guys said the robot must have dropped it during assembly. He got a few laughs from his colleagues with that line.
As far as the handle popping out they say it's a defective panel on the hatchback door and have ordered a new one to be installed. All in all very happy with the service team! |
heh, my inside hatch holder fell out yesterday too
|
We got our ET 2010 just this fall ,& have a bad smale commine out at first then goes away? I took the filter out & cleaned it but it was not dirty! had a leaf in it!.
just a update no handles or loose bolt Yet! |
I mentioned this in the rattles thread, but the handle fell out of my hatch too. No luck fixing it yet from the dealer.
I'll print off this thread and bring it in if your fix is successful. |
