Is there any TSB for the trunk rattle and brakes squealing

[princess]

What aren't you happy about?

i have the brake squeel too...its usually just at low speed with very light pressure on the brakes, sometimes goes away after warming up, sometimes not, hasnt bothered me too much, but i wish it wasnt there

I have this product characteristic sheet from honda about the brakes (sorry no scanner). It basically says it's normal and they won't really do much, if anything, about it:

Brakes Squeal

Customer's concern: "My brakes make a squealing noise sometimes when I apply them lightly at low speeds; when I apply them with more force, the squealing stops."

What's happening and why: As described in some owner's manuals, the squealing noise is caused by high-frequency vibration of the brake pads against the rotating brake disc. Vibration is the unavoidable result of friction generated by the pads as the caliper clamps them against the rotating disc. Under average braking conditions, some brake noise is normal and cannot be eliminated.

Normally, the shims and the high-temperature grease between the pads and the brake caliper dampen and isolate most of the vibration. The level of vibration, however, is affected by outside temperature and humidity, by road conditions (mud, dust, and road salt) and by conditions or thickness of the brake pad materiel.

What can be done: If the squealing noise is abnormally loud, have the brakes inspected and checked for pad wear.

• If thickness of the friction material (compared to the wear indicator) indicates that the remaining usable lining won't last until the next scheduled service for the vehicle, then replace the brake pads.

• If enough friction material is still present on the brake pads, then replace the pad shims and the high-temperature grease.

I took car back to dealer, requested to follow procedure as instructed on TSB. Wool felt was installed, problem solved.

Thanks and sorry about that. Before I posted I searched for TSB 08-083 and it came up with no results. I guess I need to get more familiar with search engine on the forum. Thanks again.

That's what I did and it fixed it. Just used a bunch of foam from an old camping mat. did the trick nice and no rattles (I'm not using that crappy free air sub either....it was terrible).

Will this work for my '09 as well? I've noticed mine rattles...and it doesn't even have to be maxed out. I thought it was just me or something.

ever think maybe the bass is what caused the problem .after a while it will loosen things up .as far as the brakes only use honda pads,and dont be so hard on them.and be easy while they are breaking in about 500miles
