Roof Rattle

[DWBOX2000]

I am still trying to figure out a rattle from my right rear. As mentioned previously, I had it looked at twice and no one found a problem with the suspension. It was a Porsche Indie so I am assuming they know what they were doing.

Has anyone experience any rattle from the roof mechanism? Is there anywhere that might rattle but lessens as the engine gets warmer? I tried shaking the coolant tank, seems tight. The oil stick has a little play but I couldn't hear the rattle with engine running.

Any thoughts on something in the engine bay that could possibly rattle on the right side.

Car is a 986 S.

Thanks. It drives me nuts since I try to keep up on problems. This one I just cant figure out.

See if it's your wind baffles in the roll bar. Notorious for the "can't find" rattles.

Seat belt metal part hitting the side or back side of passenger seat's hard surface?

I found my roof rattle was as Geof3 mentioned. It was the left side wind baffle tabs bouncing on the bottom of the roll bar. I resolved it by attaching a few small pieces of open cell foam insulation (other one side adhesive type in a roll). Worked perfectly. For years I thought it was my roof structure as the sound never seemed to come from that specific location.

The wind baffles in the roll bar did make a noise but I fixed with insulation tap. I think the seat belt would be more metallic sounding, metal to metal. It's like a low tone rattle noise that seems to go away after driving for a while.

Thanks for the responses.
