The other day after a hard run on some straight road i pulled into a parking lot and heard a LOUD chattering from the trunk...

its sounds exactly like plastic or something rattling against the window...it only occurs on left turns at low rpms when vibration of the car are rough on the rear end...the sound will climax louder and finish with a resonating grinding noise

- ive spent hours trying to locate it, pulled out hte spare tire, jack, jack handle, wheels chauk, rear plastic panel, passenger side rear plastic panel, removed plastic from the hatch surround........ive even driven down the street with the hatch up!~ still makes the same rattling noise...it will occur for a split second or a few seconds even at idle or with the car turned off and rolling

i am seriously going nuts...what should i do about this who can i take it too..?
there is almost no more i can possibly do to stop this its extremely interrupting and i'm almost 100% sure its in the interior...how could i have someone fix this without worrying about them test driving the car?

You might want to check where the power antenna motor is and in the same area on the drivers side by the abs computer. Maybe a bolt fell in that space between the frame and the body.

Also, check your exhaust. When I had my cheapie ill-fitting Ebay midpipe on, it cocked my exhaust system upwards and made the cat-back tap the frame when taking off from a stop.

Just jack up the car and wiggle the exhaust all around.

If it's not the exhaust, you could have the baffles inside your gas tank breaking loose and tapping stuff.
