Has anyone encountered/fixed a rattle in the B-pillar? If so, can you share any tips for accessing and taming it??
Thanks!

Is this by chance the passenger side?
If so as your passenger exits you will notice the seat belt buckle hangs and rests sideways, as you drive it rattles against the pillar, just straighten it out and rattle stops.
I have my wife trained to do this now, vs me reaching over to fix it while driving. ;)

My wife does that too.
Why do they DO that???

I have chosen to stop asking her not to doing and just fix it myself.

The few times my wife has been in the passenger side she has let the belt fly back and bang on the pillar... the last time I finally snapped and yelled "STOP DOING THAT!"

Worse is when it flies and hits the window. Waiting for it to break one of these times.
Guess she is just in a hurry to get out after riding with me. :LOL:

Yeah, it was a choice between a wife and kids or being single, having lots of toys, huge garage with a loft for living, doing what I wanted, when I wanted... what was my point again? ?

LOL I live in a college town no need to go that far, just not going to let anyone move in ever again, if they want a nice house and truck do what the rest of us do, get a job, right now they just need help paying their bills :)
a few years ago the K9 and me took off and ate our way across the country, stopped often to play ball, slept in truckstops drank starbucks on top of a Mt. outside Vail, CO you cant do that hooked up with a hooters girl LOL nope she is probably in the UK somewhere and I wish her well, the K9 however is living his best life, the look on his face when he seen the fireplace at the resort was priceless.... And I Didnt Need TO Pull A F***ING Home Loan to do it bahahaha
