OK, to make sure you see it this time, here goes: (Caps lock
humorously intended):
THIS SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED IN MY CAR. I FINALLY GOT IT FIXED, UNDER
WARRANTY AT THE DEALER. I HAD TO GO THERE TWICE UNTIL IT GOT FIXED
FOR GOOD. FOR YOUR BENEFIT, I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP JUST NOW AND THIS
IS WHAT THEY TOLD ME THE PROBLEM WAS AND HOW THEY FIXED IT:
REMOVE AND INSTALL SUNROOF AND DRIP RAIL. TEST DRIVE AND INSULATE
DRIVING HARNESS. AND THAT CURED THE RATTLE. 15,000 MILES JULY 1998.
[IT DID NOT CURE THE RATTLE-- IT WENT AWAY FOR A SHORT WHILE BUT WAS SOON BACK]
CHECK FOR RATTLE IN LEFT SIDE OF SUNROOF. REMOVE HEADLINER AND LOWER
SUNROOF FRAME. PUT INSULATION BETWEEN SUNROOF FRAME AND BODY. SEPT. 17
1998.
THAT IS THE LAST TIME THEY DID THE WORK, AND EVER SINCE THEN IT HAS BEEN FINE.
I'm pretty sure I responded last time to your message, but this time
hopefully, you'll get it fixed. :)
