Default Squeaky hatch?

Ive adjusted the rear rubber fittings several times...and they are currently out about as far as they can go, but still get noise from the back.

I hope Im not confusing this with the groaning sound...

Hi
Do you have water coming from the hatch?

I had noises from the hatch. Try checking the plastic on the inside of the hatch, mine was not snapped in all the way. Also the plastic handle where you pull the hatch down was always coming off which made a rattle sound, the dealer replaced that item.

One more item, my license plate vibrated so I put some self stick foam behind it.

Hope this helps, good luck finding it.

Hi Stef- No water in the hatch...but darn good catch on the styrofoam...that sure could be it. Ill take out the tools and replicate the action that causes this.

Thanks!

I put a pair of gloves between the tools foam and the cover.
It works....
