Rattling sound from rear seats

For the last couple of weeks there's been a consistent rattling sound from the rear seats area (as per linked audio file). Typically I can hear it when breaking and accelerating at low speeds (sub 10-15 mph). Any advice on the cause and how to fix this would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I'm having the same issue. I swear I've looked in every corner of the car to find it including shaking the rear passenger doors to see if maybe one of the clips broke off. I'm dropping mine off at the dealer for some other work and I'm definitely going to ask them to investigate. I'll let you know what if anything they find.

I get the same sound but only on really bumpy roads.

Me too. I thought it was the seatbelts but not tracked it down yet

Mine had a rattle caused by the rear shelf vibrating against the metal below it. I got in the truck on my back with the rear seats down and put some foam in between. The metal has many cutouts that make good places to put the foam.

I had this rattle/squeak back in August 2022….they had to pull both rear tires and adjust suspension….poof….no more squeak/rattle…

Hi
i had the same was awful turned out to be the rear door panel dealer fixed it when they did the big software update but had the car three days
I ended up sitting in the back while better half drive to track it down I used micro fibre towel between door for a few weeks to stop it
I have a similar one on the front passenger door not sure if it’s clips but tbh pretty poor on a £100k plus car

Same.

To the OP, if it's a higher pitched rattle/squeak it's most likely coming from the rear suspension. In my case, they put lube to fix.

I'm having the same issue on bumby roads. Did you figure out what it is? It's actually kind of embarrassing.

No, it’s so infrequent and doesn’t bother me. If it gets worse or becomes constant, I’ll look into it.

Mine had the same problem on the first week driving it. I took it to dealer and the problem was on the trunk closing mechanism. They adjusted and tightened it in a few minutes and the noise disappeared. They mentioned had seen the same in other Taycans as well.

I took mine in for service and they actually discovered what was making the sound. They said it was a loose screw in the rear floor board. The had to pull up the rear carpet to get to it.
