Ticking Sound - Driving Me Crazy

[asc709]

I’ve taken my car in to the dealer twice to diagnose this ticking issue. They can’t figure it out. It only happens when it’s warm outside, is inconsistent, can happen at steady speeds or while going over bumps, and almost never happens when I’m on the brakes. It is definitely coming from the rear (specifically the driver’s side). I insist that this has to do with TSB SSM 52444. The clicking stops when I accelerate hard but will come back slowly. I have removed the interior quarter panel trim, and there is nothing vibrating and no foreign objects are in the interior structure of the car. I do not think it is something bouncing around because it happens on steady roads like in this video. Anybody else go through this and have it fixed?

Ok that sounds like mine. It is probably the rear seat latch clacking. Try taking the rear seat down and check also someone suggested to put some silocone spray on the latch. I traced mine to the seat latch.

If the sound is coming from behind you it might be the rear seat latch mechanism. It sounds like mine anyway.
