04-05 civics

are the new 04-05 civics better than like the 01 as far as not having as many rattles and problems like that? i can't stand all the rattling from my car.

I really don't know, I have an 01 and it doesn't make any rattles. but probably 04-05's would be better since their newer and been adjusted

my friends 04 doesnt rattle, everything has a softer refined quality to it. example are the handles on the ceiling of the cabin, 01-02s snap into place, but the 03s-05s have a spring to slow it down so it wont snap into place.

The windows on my 4 month old 05 is begining to rattle now. It was noiseless in when I first got it, but the window rails is rattling against the glass after the power windows has been used these few months. Really annoying.

I have noise from the passengers A pillar and the drivers door panel on my 05, Has been there from the the start though. And I have developed a intermittent rattle when the rear passenger window is at a certain point down. Need to get them fixed, but not that bad.

I have an '04 and even the door trims rattle! Not to mention the rear shelf & the interior door locks. But I have a 860 WATT RMS sound System so it's all good!

My '03 coupe had the door lock rattle - got them to fix it under warranty. Had a bit of a rattle from the dashboard when I put in my strut tower brace, but it went away after it settled in.

I've got an '03 with right at 32,000 miles, and my drivers seat makes all kinds of funny noises! Maybe I just weigh too much.

The driver's side lock on my 05 coupe rattles when the music is up, especially when unlocked. Makes it sound like the music is distorting. Drives me nuts..... grrrr i need subs!!!

Maybe throw some kind of foam behind it to prevent it from hitting the metal on the car.

my car rattles like there's no tomorrow. But then again its modded. I'm not sure if it would rattle if I didn't have all those mods.

I have had no rattles, no subs though, on my 04' sedan with 27k miles. I would be pissed if i heard noises like that, probably take it to dealer and complain, i get bothered by little things like that.
