WRX & STI Rattle-Proofing : Trunk Lid
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 лип 2024
- See how to rattle-proof the area under the trunk lid. I go over what I did and offer tips and suggestions. The trunk in the WRX/STI is a rattle-breeding area and rattle-proofing is an easy and necessary way to remove rattles and vibrations and increase the clarity of your sound system, particularly if there is a sub installed. Check out the other videos in this series.
Rattle-Proofing Playlist: • WRX/STI Rattle-Proofing
Here’s the sound and rattle proofing materials I used or recommend:
Singer Roadkill Carpet Pad → amzn.to/2NXEyfD This is what you see me using under the dash near the end. I installed this under the WRX’s carpet and it provided awesome noise reduction and I had some left over and put it to good use under the dash.
Sound Deadening Mats I recommend → amzn.to/2ZTwJyR These load the thin metal on the car chassis with enough weight to stop unnecessary rattling at certain frequencies. Sound deadening your car is one of the easiest ways of making your interior feel luxurious.
Soundskins → amzn.to/2NchJ8n Soundskins is basically the two above products combined into one. I used these on my doors and man did it make a huge difference. A bit more expensive, but worth it. See install on doors: • Soundskins Sound Deade...
Foam tape → amzn.to/31k61Mi Pick the size you want, use what you need, and put the rest away. You’ll need it again some day.
Retaining Clips → amzn.to/2O0jeq2 If you’re going to do interior work on your WRX it pays to have this around as well as these panel removal tools amzn.to/2ZVAvHd

Absolutely fantastic video and information, thanks a million, you made my life so much easier, rattling has been driving me batty!
Thank you for going the extra mile on all of your videos. We have a great subie community for years to come.
Underrated channel! Thank you for the content!
OMG BRO YOUR A LIFE SAVER, i put speakers and a sub in my wrx trunk and it kept rattling i thought it was my wing but it wasnt it was my trunk, bro thank you that rattle sound was driving me insane im liking this and subscribing
Man, your channel is a goldmine for Subaru info. Recently upgraded my sound system and the rattles are driving me insane!! Thanks for all the info and vids. Definitely MVP 🏆
same bro, about to do the same thing to mine
Great video man! I will do this part too. Make sure you put some sound deadening around the gas cap area while you're inside. My gas cap cover was rattling too.
Definately good video for rattles in the trunk. I would of covered the majority of the part under the plastic over with dynamat material and the entire plastic pieces with the closed cell foam for a bit more sound reduction. When i close my trunk now it has a solid more well built feel and thump.
...thanks. Rubber vacuum line can help with cables too.
Yes, at 17k/15mo, my '19 WRX has developed the ubiquitous rear shelf rattle. Acceleration and rough roads generate noise. With it cold out, the noise is more pronounced and happens more often.
Might as well put 4"x4" squares on the trunk lid while you are in there.
So helpful! Thank you!
this was excellent. Thankyou!!!!
A great video. Stay safe.
My bumper is rattling where it meets the quarter panel. Might be your source.
Thank you👏🏻 this has been bothering me
Cant wait to do this to mine
A great video brother. Stay safe.
Thank you for this, and for other comments on other videos. Much appreciate the interactions with subs!
Love it👌🏽
Just got a deal on black Friday for the exact same mono amp and sub finally for WRX - holy heck what a difference the sub makes at low freq. But now my taillights are rattling along with the quarter panel it’s crazy lol
@@akqjtn Def good advices on that. I'll try that later this month during holiday time. I did sound deadening for the majority of my car but unfortunately half-ass'd the quarter panel by only doing the lower portion lol. Lesson learnt not to half-ass anything now i gotta go back.
No no no I don't like rattling trunk imma watch this video this guy is going to make everything better
I have a ford escape every got damn thing on this car rattled so I took it in and had the entire inside done and whoa it made an extremely big difference I've got two American bass vfl signature series with the grand father amp so it's pretty extreme
They make a roll of slim soundproofing would work great on the plastic back of the cover
Having a similar problem in my corolla only problem is I don't know if the rattle is from the speakers or from the trunk lid area when the bass is high
It's been a year. So how have the trunk area hold up? The aft dash board is driving me nuts.
👍
I have a rattle on my 2006 sti with 124,000 miles. Seems to be coming from between the inside of the windshield and dash. Driving me loco.
Whats with ppl putting red subaru badges in place of the blue one?
I have tow sub and wen i open the trunk the sound become very loud but wen i closed the sound is shit.. Why?
My STI doesn’t have the cover you had to remove. Is that normal?
Could I just duck tApe all the loose pieces
I think the third brake light is one of the worst spots on most cars. Especially these newer wrx/sti
yeah that rattles a lot. I ended up using some friction tape on contact points and then some foam shoved in there to put pressure on the inside. Removed the rattle completely, i heard you can also use a shop towel or rag shoved inside as well.
Are you planning on changing your wheels?
@@akqjtn have 6 months withy sti haven't done touch upgrading thinking of new wheels but still debating . Will look forward to future vids.
Eminem is that you?
I’m listening to your rattle from my car which is starting to make my base rattle. Rattleception
Subarus are such pieces of shit. Worst engines you could ask for. I think trunk rattle is the least of anyone's concerns.
Don't your seat fold down? Then you can look inside
