Howdy. I’ve got a really annoying rattle which sounds like it’s coming from the rear passenger C pillar. I’ve messed with the seatbelt, buttoned down the jack and gasoline nozzle, put the seats up and down, banged around on panels to try to localize but nothing seems to help. It’s a 2023 35 truck. Any easy tips for dismantling the panels back there?

Sweet, I guess I should have actually done some googling. I hope I find something loose in there, driving me nuts.

There's a lot of rattling that comes from the rear window assembly. Check there too. The video above shows how to take the trim along the whole back of the cab too. Lots of things in there that can rattle as well.

Yeah other than that...pretty quiet truck. Which probably makes that one rattle especially annoying. Tends to go away on the HWY as the frequency increases, but 0-40mph its bad. Sometimes even if you don't find the rattle, simply taking apart and reassembling fixes it.

Sorry guys....had other crap I had to do....broken sprinklers and stuff. I did partially pull that C pillar panel back, didn't see anything and slammed it home. Still rattles.
