The hatch rattle is fixable. There two rubber stopper things at each corner. Loosen them a turn or two. When you close the hatch, the stoppers are effectively taller which makes it hadrer keep closed. This gives you a better seal and reduces the amount of rattling. You can also wrap the 'U' shaped bracket on the hatch in electrical tape, which gives the same effect.

Both windows rattle when just slightly down, something in the dash (whilie driving I smash my fist in it and sometimes will go away), rattels by driver side speaker, actually the door panel, when leaving a driveway and I take the car at an angle you can hear major twisting/creaking sounds. Makes we really want to sell and get a MBZ E55

I think squeeks are the worst. I get a stupid squeek from my seat belt, my intake that is temporarily rigged up so it sits on some metal piece, my windows sometimes when going up and down, and some plastic in my hatch or somewhere back there from my exhaust/sub. Oh and I get this horrible whining noise through my speakers from my stupid alternator. I hate it. But oh well what ya gonna do...:dunno:

Usually if you hit the area that's rattling, the noise goes away. Of course, this 'fix' probably makes the problem worse over time
