GR86 I got 99 creaks but this car is fun

The only annoying noise I've found so far is a faint kind of whirring/ticking noise sometimes at higher revs. It sounds a little like the notorious gearstick rattle which plagued the older car, but it's not that I don't think. Much less metallic, and quieter. I think it only occurs when on the accelerator, and seems to be coming from just behind the dash - it' almost sounds like it might be something to do with the HVAC. It's very quiet, I can't hear it with any sort of music on. But when I am, ahem, 'making progress in a completely legal fashion', I tend to turn off any music entirely.

I'll try and pay more attention next time I'm out, but if this rings a bell with anyone who thinks they might be hearing similar, let me know.

My boot floor I hear moving when over bumps. Need to get that GR rubber boot mat to hold it down and contain mess from kit when I come back from a hike.

I also hear the boot floor over the seemingly hundreds of speed bumps around my town.
I also wan the boot liner but will wait for the IK dealers to get them as ordering from the eBay from the US costs over £115.
 
I cut some mlv to match the current boot liner and placed it under the standard one. Quiet as a mouse now as it pinches the standard one down. Adds a little sound proofing to.

Anyone got a rattle from what sounds like the rear passenger side? Can hear it on uneven road surfaces and coming off speed bumps.

It’s pretty noticeable even when music is on low volume. Fingers crossed there’s a fix out there 🤞🏽

Yep exactly the same! Fixed both with some CC sticky back foam. Couple on either side of the glove box panel and then the speaker panel and A pillar cover. It all pops off easy enough, the clips holding the pillar cover on are flimsy and are tethered as part of the side curtain airbag is behind it so its designed to pop off easily. Mine is now rattle free from that part. There's still a rattle in the rear and annoying PS4 tyre whine/drone which is slowly driving me insane. Although that just leads me to trying to kill the tyres even faster... according to my Toyota health check yesterday 2.5mm gone after 1200 miles so far assuming they came with 8mm....

So how exactly did you run the foam please? Along the A pillar edged or something?

Need to sort mine as they are starting to annoy now
 
I got annoyed with my pillar creak I gave it a mild savaging with my fist.

Pretty much sorted the creak.

Mild savaging on the glovebox did not work.

This is forever on my I only remember when I drive then forget I need to do it list.

Yes. I have noticed a rattle from somewhere in the rear LHS and it has only surfaced since we have had warmer weather, during the cooler months, nothing.
