Rear SCAB Door Rattle. Can't figure it out

[FP Forged]

I have been battling a rattle that is possibly in my rear door on the passenger side for a while now. I've had the panel off a few times. I put foam on the plastic sheeting and female velcro on the wires and around the holes that the wires pass through to make a soft barrier. I also put athletic tape on the latches that hold the door shut (worked on my Sti's rear seat). It sounds like a light ticking noise. The rattle isn't congruent or in harmony with the bumps in the road. I made this video driving down a smooth paved road. You might need to turn the speakers up or use headphones to hear it. It was recorded with my phone.

Anybody have an idea? It seemed to start when it got hot a few weeks ago.

You could try taking the rear door panel off and drive around like that for a while and see if you still get the noise.

You could try this diy mod. Some people said it sealed there doors up much better. Maybe a tighter fit will take away that rattle.

Thanks for the heads up. The truck is still fairly new (2014 8k miles) but might be worth a shot.

Try something for me. Just barely close the rear door and the front door so neither of them are shut tight and go for a short ride. I had a similar sound that was caused by the rear door panel rubbing on the trim when fully closed.

Thanks Bird. I'll try that on my drive home today.
