Anyone else notice that when the T-Top is on, there's a lot of rattle coming from the T-top? I especially notice the rattle when I put the top on after driving "topless" for a while. Is there any fix to this?
T-Top Rattle
- Thread starter charleysung
- Start date
I use a rubber treatment spray from Acura that I put on the rubber that touches the removeable top. Over time the rubber can dry out and stiffen up. The spray soften the rubber and keep the rattle down to a minimum. I remember hearing rattling from the roof once, but thats about it.
$5 tube of NAPA silicone rubber lubricant/sealant will be good for about 300+ applications. Worked for me...
In addition to applying the rubber treatment, the main cause of the squeaks are the contaminates that gather up on the rubber seals. Make sure you clean that stuff up before you apply the goop. 
how do I clean? What do I use? Just a wet rag or something special?

Nothing special is needed. Just wipe it down. Then put the treatment on. The TSB article gets a little bit more involved... but the majority of the problem is just a dirty, untreated seal.
