Hi everyone

I have a significant annoying rattle from the centre latch behind the seats which you pull to release the soft top.

I think the spring has worn out so it rattles around a lot at low speeds on bumpy roads.

Anyone know what the easiest way is to fix this? Is this part available for order or is it easy to grease it with lithium grease or some other solution? Thanks

Not much help on this, but i have the exact same rattling latch which drives me mental! If you find a fix let me know!

Its not the wind deflector rattling is it? I have heard of them coming loose so the perspex can move?

For me its the latch 100%. Buzzing away behind my ear

Definitely the latch not the wind deflector. Apparently changng a new latch means changing the whole rear plastic board which costs around 150 pounds and needs 1 hour labour!

I have seen some on eBay.
Try one of the breakers.
