A few questions
-
Just to add,
Removing the rear parcel shelf creates alot more noise in the car, it is a sound suppressor.
basicly, it'd be like a van without it.
(or if you've ever taken a trip in a car, in the boot :lol: )

Right, I had a load of those problems, I asked about it on mx3.com. It's not the parcel shelf and all the plastics that I thought it was, it's the hatch. I wrapped a load of electrical tape (forum said ally sheet ) around the hatch catch, the bit that catches the latch. Fantastic, no more sqeeky rattley noises. pm me for more if you need. :)

yes my friend i have this problem too post pics

Wow, it's good to know what it actually is, any pics would be great, wanna get this done myself.

A simple modification to the catch. As I said, the guy who did the original wrapped some aluminium around. I just wrapped some electrical tape, it holds the boot hatch tight to the body and stops the squeeks and rattles. I might add that before this I tightend every screw and bolt in the back, got a mate to sit in the back and listen and finally rimmed the boot seal with some vasaline. This worked.
