Perfectly valid option, but I have little faith in that method due to past experiences. I decided I'd rather do it myself.

Buy Liberty. Only rattles are when, now over amplified, sub is working hard

Whether or not this was a legitimate excuse from the dealer or them just getting out of fixing a problem with the car, I decided to stop by some one that I could actually rely upon and get a good job out of it.

The fact that I had to pay a small amount of money to get this issue finally resolved didn't bother me much at all.

Sounds like an excuse to me.
Got mine fixed at dealer, haven't heard a rattle since from the rear shelf.......yet

I had this exact issue from the exact same spot you're claiming and with the exact same model car.

I determined it was the rear parcel from that first minute on a cold start where subarus idle real high, so let it idle and felt around until i stopped the noise.. yep was parcel shelf, right in the middle.

As someone said theres a whole guide on NASIOC to stop it.. but I can't be bothered pulling whole parcel shelf out and dynamatting it etc.... so i just cut a square out of a stubby holder and jammed a piece of it between window and parcel shelf.. all fixed.

Doesn't look very professional but not a single person has noticed it there. I may experiment with other ideas like getting some small chair feet (the little circle foam pads) and sticking them under it, so it's even more subtle.. but meh this does the job for now.

Couldn't find an appropriate thread, so I've decided to bump this one up!

Nice little write up on how to find and resolve rattles in the doors.
Will be attempting this one myself in a the next couple of weeks.

Clicky!
