Rattle in rear...don't know what it could be?

Sounds like the rattle is coming from the right side rear. Almost sounds like a popping sound, or knocking sound. Give me some input on possibilties................................

I'm having the same noise, I just noticed it now that I've layed my back seat down. I thought it was the exhaust but thats tight as ever. What do you mean by Vent?

Check the strut mounts. I had the same problem in my Cavy, my cousin had it in hers, a friend of mine had it in his, and in every one it was the strut mounts. Apparently there was one of those GM bullitins or recalls or something about it. I read it in a thread on htis site but I can't remember where.

Hmm.... my mounts were supposed to be replaced a while back but who knows if the guy I had do it actually did it right? Yea, and what do you mean the vent....???? Could it a possible wheel bearing going out?

Don't know. When I replaced my struts it went away. Same with my cousin and my friend. But I think it's the actual mounts. Loose bolts or something like that. If you can find the thread, it should tell you. Do a search and maybe you can find it.

If it's a clunky sort of rattle it's probably the mount. Could be loose, probably just bad. They're infamous for going bad, quickly sometimes too.
