Z4 Coupe boot rattle...

My coupe makes a rattling noise when going over bumps at low speed. Sounds like the trim is rattling somewhere in the boot. I had look and tightened and few screws and it appears to have made it worse!

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a fix for it?

there is a rubber flap in the back that hits the metal where the top folds into. it probably just needs to be secured. i had the same problem. its rubber-like, and sorta snaps on to that metal piece.

...sorry for the horrible description lol

Could be the false floor carpet piece, it tends to rattle if it isn't seated just right with the edge of the carpet. The carpet piece is solid so it tends to bounce more then if it was just carpet.

Check your tool kit - my rattle was the wheel lug key hitting the pliers.
