My passenger side rear quarter panel (the section behind the door but forward of the rear wheel, also the same place the vent would be if it were a boxster) contains a rattle that drives me nuts.

I think it came from the ding doctor. I had dings taken out of that area and they had to driull a hole to get them out. I heard that sometimes the metal piece falls into the car and does not come out.

I have tried to get to this by removing the wheel and all platic covers around the area below and behind. I cannot get to it. Any suggestions? Can I get in there from the interior?

Thanks. This is driving me nuts!!!!!!

I had this same problem some years back with an Audi. Basically, I did some work on a rear panel and managed to loose a bolt down the back between the outside and inner wall. Short of turning the car upside down to shake it loos I had no choice but to put up with the ratling. Then I found a can of expandable foam. You can buy it at DIY shops. I bought this gap filling stuff that is fire resistent. Shoved the nozzle in the panel and basically emptied the can contents.....rattle went away for good.......had a bad odour for a while though.
