rattling noise,,no help from honda

I went to honda to have them take a look at this rattling noise coming from under the glovebox or in the door on the passenger side, and they said that they couldn't tell where it was cause my tires were so unbalanced...well i took them to get balanced and dude said they were fine.....i also found a tsb talking about rattling noise from passenger side.....if i show that to honda will they fix it under warranty? they also started bitching about how my coilovers could have made something rattle....any suggestions? need help

TRY: Wrap a bit of tape around the catch for your glovebox.

That was the source of the rattle for me. Car is quiet now.
Electrical tape works, like 2 turns, so it's snug.

Tell them you know about the tsb, your service advisor should already know about it him self, and if the car is still under warranty tell them you demand that they fix it and to prove it's the coilovers, because I bought a new stereo the 3rd day I bought my car and the shifter became stuck in gear and they tried to blame that Sh$t and the installation of the stereo. I notice that anytime one does a slight mod to their car the dealer always trys blame it on something you did.

Kloverz has a little shameless behaviour in the past
I had the same situation my window didnt go up guess what they blame it on my alarm system that it burnt my master window side I was like WTF I had a big arguement with the advisor, the main point is they will try to blame it on anything you put in thats why i hate my local honda, back to the topic tell them to fix actually DEMAND them to.

My favorite is when they blame tinting for engine/tranny problems...That cracks my $hit up...
