Another Problem- Speaker Vibration!

[Ravstar]

Hello all,

I am having one of those days....

I have taken my car into the Lexus dealer several times, as I have had a lot of little problems (nothing major thank ***)

Basically, when I listen to any music with some bass, I get this vibration noise from the rear passenger side speaker. It's as though perhaps the speaker wires are touching the vibrating speaker cone or some screw is loose or something. As you can imagine it is really annoying when listening to any music, and I have told lexus about this and they take a look at it and say they have sorted it out , and sometimes they say they couldn't find anything wrong! I have tried explaining this to them several times, but there seems to be some kind of miscommunication! Has anyone else had this problem? Is there an easy way of sorting it out as the dealer doesnt seem to know!

It's more likley to be a loose screw or fixing somewhere inside the door. Take the door panel off and tighten everything up - also worth putting some Dynamat in there too - it will stop the sound bouncing around inside the door.

i had this a while ago - it does sound like something was loose but it actually wasnt - it turned out to be a loose earth wire in the rear of the radio connection - if it was loose u had a real strange sound - the same as vibration!

I had a similer problem when i picked up my car , it turned out to be glass from a broken rear screen bouncing on the speaker cones

Mine sounds like the rear passenger side door area but it's actually the roof lining vibrating - you can hear the rattling from outside the car, need to get it sorted soon!

Did sound like the door though, found the source by accident one day....

It's very heard to detect where low frequency vibrations comes from - that's why subwoofers are omni-directional
