one thing you have to remember man, is our car's are old.. mines 13 yrs and ur's is 12yrs old..

stiffer suspension will make more rattles. it's just the hatch and all the cheap plastic in the back that rattles. i mean if you want, just check over everything to give yourself a peice of mind, if u need it.

but im leaning more towards the oldness of the car, the nitorious hatchback creeking..

My 92 ls's hatch I believe rattles sometimes, and it gets on my damn nerves. Im trying to pinpoint the origin of the rattle so I can fix it. Does anyone have any idea what it is or how I can fix it? At first I thought it was the trunk cover, but I took it out and it still rattles.

I found a fix for the hatch rattle.. wrap a few layer of electrical tape around the metal hook... just enough so you can close the hatch. that worked for me.. my hatch is good now.. but there is something either loose or something just hitting eachother causing the rattle.. not sure... i just hate the noise so much.. gets so annoying.. but try the electric tape. it worked for me.

I gotta try that, hatch squeak is getting to me too. Usually my music is too loud to even notice it, but on those occasions that I'm listening to my engine, it really pisses me off too.

my 94 ls does the same thing. but it only does it when the plastics are in. i am missing a few of those plastic screws though. getting those screws should solve the problem.
