THe_DeTAiL3R Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 First time I heard it was when I was slowly going over some bumpy gravel road. Now it does it like all the time it seems. It's like a creeking noise that sounds like its directly above you. Not sure if it sounds like plastic or metal (or both??). I don't *think* it really sounds like rear struts, any ideas? Quote
DiscoStudd Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 FWIW, my old GP made a "cracking" sound around the rear window whenever I went over a bump. Not sure if it was the same thing causing it or not, but I thought I'd mention it. Maybe pull the headliner down and see if the roof's crossbraces are still welded together ... Quote
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted September 13, 2005 Author Report Posted September 13, 2005 Maybe pull the headliner down and see if the roof's crossbraces are still welded together ... Yeah I'm thinking that might be a possibility. It's not really a cracking sound more like a creeking (like a door in a scarey movie or something). Quote
nebojsa_o Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 My 4 door CS does that too, every now and then, and it sounds like it's above my head, but it's not. For me all I gotta do is press the drivers window button down, to lower the window just like .5 cm, and the noise stops. Maybe it's not ever the same noise, but does yours do it when the windows are down? Quote
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted September 14, 2005 Author Report Posted September 14, 2005 It's summer silly! Yeah it does it with the windows down, and pretty sure when they're up too (although not 100% cause I always have them open). I'll try with the windows UP tomorrow and see.. Quote
1990lumina Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 If you have the high mount brake lamp in your back window, check to make sure that stupid cover isn't rattling on the rear window. But yeah, guess you should drop your headliner down to make sure nothing is structally wrong. If it was me however, I'd just turn the music up louder Quote
terryk2003 Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 are you POSITIVE its the roof?...i know i got this sweet creeking noise in the left front of my cutlass...i think its the strut or ball joint ..but, it does it when i slow down and take off...and on gravel/rough roads...its pretty annoying!

Kalgorn Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 If it was me however, I'd just turn the music up louder That's basically what I do. I've got a rattling in the rear of my car that's been there for a while now (months and months) so I just turn up the music and make it so I can't hear it. :oops: Quote
94CutlassSLCoupe Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 My car sweaks like that...turned out it was the doorpanel where it meets the dash Quote
nebojsa_o Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 Hey dude, it was an idea, yea it's summer, but my windows are usually up anyways, I guess it depends on what you're used to. If it's too hot I use AC.. Quote
