boot rattle

Just bought my car (which looks just great) but have a boot rattle on the left hand side when on bumpy roads (which are all over the place where i live) have been told to adjust the rubber boot feet. Has anyone else had this problem. Also have a squeeky roof which seems to disappear when I open and reclose the roof catches !!! Is this just the joys of owning a 206 CC. Also need an allen key in case roof malfunctions - does anyone know what size ! Other than that I love it .....

hi,
i have the same rattle from the boot. let me know if you are able to locate it.

1 suggestion- the boot catch- sometimes can be loose. Just screw it tight. --- Mine still rattles.

We had the same problem as netball0. Jack is contained within polystyrene case in the boot and if not placed within it perfectly the wheel chocks tend to rattle. Pack them with something to stop it.
The allen key is normally in the polystyrene case. The allen key is 4mm A/F from memory, and about 170mm long on one end, and 50mm long on the other.
