2003 Accord Noise
I have a 2003 Accord that has deveoped an obnoxious clicking sound
underneath the rear deck area to the right of the rear speaker. It appears to be emanating from the area where some panels overlap. The sound occurs sometimes when hitting the slightest bump especially if the car turning to the right. Hard bumps don't usually cause it, but tapping the brakes fairly hard does. I figure it is from uneven stress within those overlapping panels. Any one else have this problem? Any ideas on how to fix it? |

Any ideas on how to fix it? I had a similar noise last week. Fixed it by fishing out the small tree branch that got stuck in the undercarriage. You might want to make a visual inspection to see if there is anything obvious. Dave - 03 Accord, no squeaks, rattles, etc after 6000 miles, especially after removing the branch |

Re: 2003 Accord Noise
The noise is definitely in the rear deck area near the rear right speaker.

Re: 2003 Accord Noise
I plan to do that; however, I first wanted to see if this was a problem with
other 2003 Accords.
