I think I'll go insane if I can't get it to stop!

Same goes for the heated seats, the pitting on the grill, loose molding
on the sunroof, etc.
I'm starting to get a feeling that this car was rushed into production with known defects.

No sub rattle on mine, and i pump the music pretty good. Only rattle i have is from the dash/a-pillar area on the passenger side.
the sub rattle in the TL annoyed the heck out of me, and I'm glad my 07 TL Type S got taken back. Had a slew of electrical problems that they couldn't pinpoint, left the car dead. The Acura dealer said it rattled because I had my system turned all the way to 10 for the Bass and it wasn't meant to handle that.... what BS is that?!?!? for the record it also rattled with the radio off when driving.

That's what I thought but I think it is coming from the left side of the instrument cluster. Noticable when I hit a rough road. In all fairness, my girlfriends car also rattles on that same part. I will be keeping an eye on it for sure.

I found the source. It's the selt belt mechanisms, just under the rear deck. They tried to cover up the buzz a little by putting little black boxes under the deck that cover the retractor systems. Must be all the springs and guts inside the tensioners. If you tap on the rear deck, you can here the faint rattle/buzz. Not sure that can be fixed. Any ideas?
