something inside door panel is driving me nuts.

when i accelerate, i hear something roll back inside door panel, when i stop, it seems to roll forward...

is the door panel easy to take off on these cars?

can someone tell me what this could be without opening the panel..

thanks.

please post link to how to open panel.

it could be a Gremlin, which i don't recommend feeding after midnight, or more likely just your imagination since you are a bit neurotic. other than that it's probably just a bolt.

I had a very similar experience. Dealer couldn't figure it out. In the end, my stereo installer found it. It was a pen sliding back and forth on the seat rail on the passenger side.

Check that out before taking it to the dealer. You can give Arling and TUUNER money too, if you like.

Oh - I forgot to mention that I could have sworn the noise was coming from exactly where you said you heard it, yellowbmr.

this noise does not sound like a bolt, something must have come off

in the door panel. I don't like Gremlins, but i am taking chances in opening the panel. I will send a PM to the gentleman above that can walk me through it.

appreciate it all.

by the way, I be at Lucent getting my wheels next week, so pictures to be posted later.
