Something moving inside the shell when turning

Hi,

I bought a CIVIC 2007 in 2007. Recently, when I drive and turn the car left (or right), I can hear something moving to right (or left) inside the shell above my head (and front).

Does anyone know what the problem it is, and should I have the car to be check in the car repair shop?

Thank you

I too have a very simular problem except it's coming from my rear door. I have feeling that it could be a screw left behind on the assembly line.

Pop the A and B pillar covers off and remove the sun visors and "oh sh*t" handle. May also have to remove the light, don't really know with your model. Then pull down the roof lining and search.

Thank you for your instruction. It is good to know that I might be able to check this by myself.

Re: Something moving inside the shell when turning

what model do you have? If it has a sunroof it could be a part from that as well, you can actually take the whole liner down if you need to. No reason to pay a shop to do what you can. If you need a DIY i think i can get you one. Let me know
