G80 M3 rear seat noise rattling


Recommended Posts

I have had same concerns and have been unable to identify the source. On chilly mornings, I hear a pronounced buzzing from the back shelf, which is rather bothersome. The dealer asserts that my midpipe is responsible for the vibration and that it might potentially "void" my warranty for the rattles, purportedly.

One morning, I need to bring someone with me in the backseat to investigate the source of the noise.

Inform me of your findings.

I have the same predicament. I had a significant rattling noise emanating from the back. My dealer was very accommodating and did not provide any nonsense about my midpipe installation. They identified that the rear back seat vents are rattling. I would never have anticipated that, but it resolved the issue. I suspect the rattling sounds originates from the back deck. I may attempt to insert foam in that area to see whether it provides assistance.

It is likely that the back deck is making contact with the bottom of the glass or the surface upon which the glass rests. A little gap exists in that area; I used insulating foam rope to fill it. The rattling has been eliminated, although I would expect a more satisfactory resolution from the dealership.
