I have definitely figured out that the knocking in the rear is the trunk latch checking itself. Don't know why it does it, but it does. I remember this being answered by somene else, but don't remember where so I am posting once and for all that it is the trunk latch.

Thanks for verifying I wasn't crazy thinking that's what it was...it still scares the hell outta people when I leave them sitting in the car while I run into the store or somethin' though :lol:.

Permafried-

Never heard it.

Never heard it either, although I did hear a pinging type noise from the rear only to learn that my antenna was a little loose and the wind was moving it enough to make some noise.

I just started hearing mine and started laughing because I knew that it was the same sound others are hearing. And it does sound like someone is knocking in your trunk. :lol:

so it is def. the trunk latch?

Seems weird to me that it's the trunk latch. Especially since sometimes I hear it a couple times over the span of a few minutes. In fact I've heard it at a red light before. Does it really need to check that many times?

LOL it totally sounds like a ghost in the trunk....

:cssNET:

I hear it all the time, and this explanation does make sense because if the trunk isnt shut tight sometimes it doesnt warn you that its open for a few minutes. If its wide open it warns right away but if its just not latched right It warned me once while I was driving down the street.
