[QUOTE="JKra, post: 439202, member: 21859"] Sporadic, rattle/ ticking SOLVED: So I have a 2013 JK unlimited. It began rattling on me a while ago. It sounded like a rattle/rapid metallic ticking sound in the door or in the A pillar, somewhere near the passenger side sun visor. It was difficult to locate because it would come and go. I use to think it was the door window and I've taken the interior paneling off many times. In fact, it took me almost 6 months to figure this out but I believe I have finally done it. Up in the front corner, where the windshield frame is bolted to the rest of the roll cage is a spot where two pieced of metal are touching. Even when the bolts are tight (there are two two on either side of the sun visor and one on the A pillar), I saw that applying pressure to the hard top latch hook would kind of replicate the sound. I took the freedom panels off and applied a little bit of WD-40 in the crack where these two pieces of metal meet. Lone behold, no more rattle. I've test driven it for a while just to be sure.
