Default Rear window creak fixed !!!

I finally took my car to get the rear window creak sound fixed. I know some of you have the same issue and had it fixed using a TSIB, but mine had a different cause. This creaking sound was more noticable when the car sat under the sun for a while.


This is what the dealer invoice said:

CAUSE: POOR SPOT WELD AT LEFT REAR QUARTER PANEL
CORRECTION: MODIFIED SPOT WELD AT LEFT REAR NEAR DEFROSTER

Just thought I'd share !!

Glad this was rectified. I wonder if anyone who either has the TSIB pdf for the other creaking can post it?
