I never had a rattle in the hatch but did have a recurring rattle in my sunroof. On the 2nd attempt to fix it, the dealer just replaced the whole sunroof assembly. While the rattle was annoying, I certainly can't complain about how well Kia honour their warranty. Love my Stinger
I had the exact same thing happen to me on my 2018 stinger sunroof Thier was a rattler or squeak coming from it. Replace the whole thing and it still came back. I ended up finding it myself. If you place your hand on the headliner at the edge directly midway below the back of the sunroof and push the headliner up or down it will stop the noise just pull on it a little bit or push up on it a little bit and you'll feel it that it can pop in and out of position. This should stop your noise. If it comes back do the same thing again . This temporarily works for a while and you have to keep on doing it over and over.
Glad you found the issue. Recommendation to all, investigate thoroughly first. And have to be gentle with those privacy covers. They’re all delicate regardless if it’s from BMW or KIA.
When I fixed mine I doubled up the thick washers and that was too much.. then the hatch would not seal completely so then I got a whistle when the car was over 50mph. Took it down to one thick washer only and it works great now.
Nice! Yeah I did one thick and two thin ones that were OE. Mine was a two part issue, the hatch was rattling again, but it wasn’t near as loud as recently. It was that privacy cover. The washers did work, I also tried two thick and it was not wanting to shut, so I adjusted the bump stops and boom. Perfect. Like day 1 again 😀
Just fixed the rattle in my ‘20 GT1 throwing a set of 5/16 neoprene (rubberized) washers over the existing ones. The piece mine came with had black plastic washers fixed in place to the cover, and extra foam in the middle that bumped out. I mention the look of my part, because it was different from most covers I’ve seen online. As annoying an issue as the rattle is, the fix is quick and cheap!
Awesome! You can also try to rubber 5/16 washers too, but I would still cut out some rubber or (anti slip map for rugs) for under the blocks. There’s a few ways to do it I suppose. Also, check your security cover, that little insert is what was rattling the loudest back there, the hatch itself was a slight rattle.
I love my 2022 Stinger GT Scorpion. Upgraded from a 2018 premium to 2022 Scorpion. However, there is something that’s concerning. My front parking sensors went out. After ordering the parts, the horn relay and the rear parking sensors went out as well. Now there’s a weird rotating / flat tire sound coming from one of the tires but there’s no flat. Also, my idle stop and go feature stopped initializing. The amber light turns on but the feature doesn’t work. I have an appointment with the dealer next week… but what the hell kia?!
I’m with ya man, it seems to vary from person to person. I’ve had no issues like that but I have the base GT, less things to go wrong. I will say though My only beef with this car is the clear coat on the paint and the interior rattles / noises at such low miles. It is a new car and the kinks can take awhile to work out, but the pros out weigh the cons. Still sucks though
Thread lock paste or Teflon tape should help, instead of plastic bags. I just noticed this issue on my 2021 GT1 with 7k miles. I'm a carpenter, so I'm not worried either way. New sub here. Good channel!
Hey Gerry! Welcome brotha! Yeah I’ve had a couple people mention that as well. So far mines been holding up good, but I always appreciate when you guys leave constructive comments down here 👊
I can tell that the original washers you had in there were stainless steel, while that new thicker washer was zinc plated (at best). If you kept that thick washer in there and in your climate, I would consider replacing it again with stainless washers, or stack a few stainless to achieve that thickness as I don't think I've ever seen stainless washers that thick. Even zinc plated washers will eventually rust.
I think people were also wanting to see some rubber washers, I used some non slip rubber that sits between the washer and paint for now. But that would be a cool update vid
My 2021 is going on the transporter this week and will arrive just after Christmas. Got a White one w/ Black interior, 13,000 kms. Had to get it secondhand as there are no new ones in Australia. Wasn't going to put a deposit on a new one only for it to not arrive.
@@twn2rboI would prefer to see actual work being done. You driving around is not helpful and frankly is a waste of my time. You driving to Home Depot doesn’t interest me.
The only noise I’ve got is a ticking in my hood lining when the weather is hot, from what I’ve found online it appears to be a foam spacer between the hood lining and the roof and the adhesion of the spacer comes away when hot and the ticking is the pad unadhering.
I have a 2019 Stinger GT (bought new). Any tips on how to fix the sunroof rattle? If I touch the open button gently it stops, but then the sunroof is slightly open.
I have a 2022 Stinger and I have the hatch rattle. Headliner was also rattling but finally got that solved at the dealer today (they added make insulation) Still yet to conquer the hatch rattle
rattle is definitely annoying bro whenever i get the chance im doing this. question so you said you put the 5/16 washer PLus the stock washer? and do you have the harmen karden in your car? that you needed that sub?
I don’t have H&K, the sound system isn’t horrible, but it definitely could use some more bass. I haven’t listen to the HK but I know for sure it’s not going to compare to the sundown X8. The mids and highs are surprisingly loud on mine though, so now it’s just perfect with the added low and loud bass
Would be cool to scan that boot hatch piece and redesign it then 3d print it. But honestly too much effort when you can just add a thicker washer, maybe something for the future.
Nick hey man use white plumers tape when you put on shower heads they tape or wrapp the threads with white plumers tape it's a blue and white container you wrapp it enough till the plastic screws are secure ok this will fix your issues bro stay safe stay blessed and we'll keep on watching ya peace ....3k alright let's get u 5k
My only gripe with mine is the head lights seem to suck, like I drive on two lane roads with no street lights, the headlights don't project worth a damn!!!! and the brakes, had to upgrade rotors and pads.
Mine work pretty good, the Lexus definitely would light up the road a little better. I usually always update my driving bulbs, maybe I can try out some different ones and do a vid. Good idea. I’ll see if I can reach out to some of these Amazon stores and get 3 tiers of led bulbs to compare. Rotors and pads, it’s a very heavy car and it’s pretty fast, so I accept it. But they definitely need upgraded when operating like we do. Mine are still good though, I’m more of a dig person - I love 0-70/100
Wanted to add my 2 cents have 2020 gt2 AWD rattle I was having in the back was not from the hatch it was actually the rear bumper skin. It's held on by push pins that wore out and was causing the noise I switched them out with two button head bolts and noise was gone
The box is what broke that piece from sliding around. Put the 12s back in and make mark it off in the spare cover and make a border for it to sit in and it won't move anymore. That's what I had to do on my escalade 3 resilient plats 15s that box destroyed my hatch panel when it slid back. Made a platform for it to sit and fall into no more damame
You can probably use either some Teflon tape or electrical tape to get a better grip from the tread. Also, I am starting to suspect that the inside hatch compartment cover could also be the culprit.
I have not. Ironically, a subscriber just messaged me on IG asking me the same question. Turns out, one of his went out too with only 10k miles on it. What year is yours? This is the second I’ve heard recently
@@twn2rbo mine is 2018. When this issue begins to happen, people have reported their music cutting in and out and a loss of power to the engine (like me). Then suddenly one day you will step on the gas and get a misfire.

Anytime! Hope it can help. I just hope everyone watched until the end and see that security cover was the loud rattle heard in the beginning. It’s all fixed now 👊👊👍
Lol did you see a video I made a little while back saying the same thing? Just like 2 months ago the same exact rattle started on mine in same area. Make a fist and hit the passenger seat headrest with the side of your fist a few times. It will mimick the rattle at the dealer. They installed a “noise suppression kit “ which is a foam material when I asked
I have had my Stinger sinse 2018 and got it new. The only issue I had was the brake discs getting warped and my trunk lights weren't hooked up so my trunk was dark for the 1st year of ownership....don't ask. I just never thought about it and wiped out my phone for light at night in my trunk. One day I was like: " wait there should be trunk lights in here.".
I’ve heard a lot say the same with the brakes and it makes since considering how heavy the car is. I still would expect more from Brembo. I never had that happen but I didn’t do a lot of high speed stuff, more digs 0-80 ish
I have a box of tools I use with me at UTI for school I have heard this rattle for a while and just hoped it was my tools when I pulled them out my the rattle still kicked my ass 😂 same thoughts
It’s not visible, towards the end of the video is the final result. I suppose plumbers tape would work too, but you would need a ton of it for it to not wiggle so bad. I have mine perfectly snug right now and the zip ties will keep it from moving back to place. That’s a common issue after adjustments, they end up moving back up. I’m just happy I’m rattle free now 😀
Only need tape on the latch you don't have to do all that other shit. It's the last that's causing the rattle. But it doesn't last you have to keep replacing the tape.
I thought I had the hatch rattle, hubby placed nylon washers to prevent rust. I still have the rattle but it seems like it's coming from rear suspension?? Anyone every had this?
Yeah Kia used some really thin ones when I took that piece off. I’d double check the cargo cover too, that was the loudest rattle I had, sounded like the hatch
Yeah esp the big one, but a hatch is a major benefit for SPL. It’s much louder than a typical car is where the sound waves travel through the seat and trunk deck. This car is so loud it’s insane, that’s why I put the Sundown X8 back in, it’s only 50 lbs so it’s easy to take in and out.
@@twn2rbo I only have a muffler delete on my GT1 and the stock speakers do well at hiding the drone I get sometimes coming from that trunk area. The seats also do well at sound deadening.
@@user-hs2wu2br47q when I remove my security cover in the hatch area, the exhaust is sooo much louder. It’s crazy . I might make a video on the before and after application of sound deadened material by the spare tire well
@@user-hs2wu2br47q but I just have the MBRP, no drone complaints, I love the louder note in sport mode. Comfort mode, the car sounds like it looks and not loud in cabin at all when driving normal.
@@twn2rbo dude! The MBRP is THE best sounding exhaust for the stinger IMO and I’m surprised more people aren’t running it. Are you running the aluminum or steel version?
I believe you are right. Also, I drove a 2021 GT2 today and it had no rattles either. Seems to be a certain batch type thing. The 2018 models are knock for inner door handle to pop off.
@@twn2rbo They are definitely a smaller package, but they are very nice. I have the 2019 AWD. I also have the JB4 but nothing else. Genesis offers free maintenance for the first couple years, so I can't go rolling into the dealer with down pipes, intake, exhaust etc without risking warranty issues.
My 2020 kia stinger gt 1 at higher speeds above 100 mph starts cutting out. Anyone have similar problems, thanks 🙂 * air intakes * Snorkels * BOV * EWG connectors * JB4
I suppose that would work, but at the end of the day you won’t see either and mine is rattle free. The bump stops are approx 1/2” each and solid which is the ultimate goal. The issue with the bump stop adjustments, is that the dealers often adjust these and they wiggle back after time. By forcing a little extra volume up there, whether that be with a bunch of Teflon tape or or some thin plastic, then securing them with zip ties, it will not allow that to happen again. I wish I didn’t have to do it myself to get rid of the rattles completely, but it is what it is
I never had a rattle in the hatch but did have a recurring rattle in my sunroof. On the 2nd attempt to fix it, the dealer just replaced the whole sunroof assembly. While the rattle was annoying, I certainly can't complain about how well Kia honour their warranty. Love my Stinger

That is great advice, I have been a little rough with them and have taken them in and out many times.
Instead of using the plastic bag for tension, you can try using some plumbing tape to go over the threads.

@@jamesplatanitis6252 I was able to super glue it back without a trace of it showing. It’s been solid every since
Try wrapping thread tape around the rubber stoppers to tighten them up.

Only need tape on the latch you don't have to do all that other shit. It's the last that's causing the rattle. But it doesn't last you have to keep replacing the tape.
I'm pretty sure Kia sent out a bulletin about how to fix the rattle issue to dealerships.
I’m sure to, but I’ve taken it to them twice and it came back. Mines been quiet since I fixed it. The washers they had in there were thin and cheap
Kia should make a recall for that problem, it annoys me.

@@twn2rbo They are definitely a smaller package, but they are very nice. I have the 2019 AWD. I also have the JB4 but nothing else. Genesis offers free maintenance for the first couple years, so I can't go rolling into the dealer with down pipes, intake, exhaust etc without risking warranty issues.
@@kurtbischoff8661 I respect that , honestly the 3.3tt stock is more than enough power, but like anything else we love, we generally want more.
2 years on and no problem
Instead of the grocery bags teflon tape would have been the ticket.
Yeah that would prob work great too, this was more of a troubleshooting experiment
PLEASE FIX THE F***** THROTTLE BODY SQUEAK
use plumbers tape
My 2020 kia stinger gt 1 at higher speeds above 100 mph starts cutting out. Anyone have similar problems, thanks 🙂
* air intakes
* Snorkels
* BOV
* EWG connectors
* JB4
Put som Funking Teflon tape and paint in black
use a nutwash and teflon tape not a bag wtf..;
I suppose that would work, but at the end of the day you won’t see either and mine is rattle free. The bump stops are approx 1/2” each and solid which is the ultimate goal. The issue with the bump stop adjustments, is that the dealers often adjust these and they wiggle back after time. By forcing a little extra volume up there, whether that be with a bunch of Teflon tape or or some thin plastic, then securing them with zip ties, it will not allow that to happen again. I wish I didn’t have to do it myself to get rid of the rattles completely, but it is what it is
21 GTI RWD, rattles like a desert snake.
