My wind deflector buzzes/rattles at certain speeds, or if I go over certain bumps. Its very irritating but I don't know which part of it is causing the buzz. If I hold it down, the buzzing stops. I tried laying it down but it makes no difference. Anyone have any idea?

I get a rattle where the latch hooks on to the soft-top. I'm hoping that its coming from some loose nut under the plastic around the front windshield frame and not the latch mechanism itself, because the frame can be removed relatively easy. There is a video of a guy replacing the OEM catchers with hardtop catchers, it might be useful if you want to get in there to check if there is any loose screws.

Had a rattle that seemed to be right next to my left ear when i was driving. It was one of the nuts that holds the door handle and the support rod thing attached to it. The other nut on the door handle assembly was a little loose too. So happy it's gone!

Fixed a huge rattle I had coming from exhaust today. Make sure the three point exhaust hangar used on the middle of the Berk exhaust is on a long side and not a short one. It causes a ping from being too close and hitting the cv axle cups over bumps.

Found a rattle fixed a rattle!
I had an really bad metallic rasping rattle when I was accelerating or decelerating between 3000rpm to 4000rpm and again at 5000rpm to about 6000rpm. The rattle seemed to be coming from the exhaust / just to the rear of the drivers seat. Also a rattle when i went over bumps that sounded like metal hitting metal.
I checked all my exhaust hanger and found nothing.
Today I had the car on a ramp and found all of the bolds bar one rivet loose or missing from my manifold heat shield, 10 minutes later with missing bolts replaced and loose ones replaced for new and tightened the car is as silent as a graveyard.
I hope this helps anyone else with the same rattle, it drove me NUTS!
Cheers
Mike

I have an extremely annoying creaking coming from my rear suspension when I go over uneven roads slowly. I tried spraying every pivot point with teflon spray and that didn't work. Next, I took off the lower control arms and cleaned them up, repainted them, and greased the bolts up. The creaking went away for all of about two days 
Why did Honda have to use this stupid bushing design that can't be greased up at all and introduces binding?

I have the same noise also from the drivers side rear, started after a very heavy downpour. Going to buy a can of spray grease and hit each bolt one at a time then drive and see if it makes a difference (leaning towards worn end links)
