Default 2006 NA coupe wing rattle

Hi all, I have a 2006 NA coupe with 28k original miles and I have recently noticed when I shut the rear hatch it sounds like a bag of bolts when the wing is in the lowered or, ‘park’, position. If I raise the wing and close the hatch it sounds like a bank vault. It also manifests as a rattle when the wing is down while driving. When the wing is up, no rattle. I have investigated the rear latch issue and that is not my problem. It seems when the wing is lowered and I tap on it or try and jiggle it there is some movement which is causing the rattle. I have checked the wing mounting points and all nuts are tight. I’m thinking there must be a way to adjust the wing mechanism so it either locks in the down position or forces the wing to park against the hatch with more pressure thus eliminating the movement which is causing the rattle... Any thoughts?

Cheers,
