Tailgate rattle/knock is driving me nuts

Thanks Weasel
I'll give them both a full turn in, hopefully that'll help.

I forgot but is I do recall a updated hatch stopper.

Noise free for us, but I do recall a blurb on 2 about this

Oh Please

I don't need to read this about our X5s.

Owned an Infiniti FX45 that had a rear gate creak or pop noise. Anything that caused body flex would trigger it.

I must have OCD because it drove me to sell the POS.

Seldom open the rear hatch on the X5...maybe that helps.

From now on I will never open the rear gate. lol

um, the x5 hatch problem is fixable.

for the other obvious problem, a good psychologist will be able to help...

good luck

I had the rubber bump stop, RealOEM.com BMW E53 X5 3.0i TRUNK LID/REAR WINDOW, (part no. 38) next to the latch missing. The dealer replaced it and no more noise.... thank God!!!.... Got it done under warranty...
