What Causes the Rattling Noise in the 2020 Mazda Atenza?
1 Answers
There are several main reasons for rattling noises inside the cabin, dashboard, or center console of the 2020 Mazda Atenza: 1. Gaps or misalignment between leather and plastic components: These can cause squeaking noises when squeezed on bumpy roads. Typically, locating the source of the noise and using paper towels or rubber as spacers to block the gaps can resolve the issue. 2. Rattling caused by collisions between the car's audio speakers and other components: This can usually be fixed by tightening the screws to secure the speakers, CD player, etc. 3. Electrical current noise inside the cabin: This is usually more noticeable when the car is first started, especially during cold starts when audio or air conditioning systems activate immediately or automatically. The noise will naturally disappear once the engine warms up or after driving for a while. 4. Noise from collisions between the sunroof glass and its frame: Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause the sunroof seals to soften, deform, and then harden, leading to gaps or misalignment. Additionally, if the sunroof rails haven't been lubricated for a long time, rattling noises may occur while driving.
