Default Pressure Flap things?

Provocative title?

Ok so it seems my beloved AU is getting a couple of niggles now that age is catching up, im sure me lowering it hasnt helped the cause either.

Unrelated to the lowering, has anyone had issues with the pressure flap things (thats my technical term) making a "loose" noise when you close the doors? It was just happening when I shut the rears now it seems to happen with the fronts aswell.

I dont know their real name, but I assume somewhere in the boot, or maybe behind the rear bar the vents that allow pressure out of the cabin when you close the doors are worn or something? It makes a plastic type pop sound everytime now and its starting to get irritating.

1. Does anyone know the exact location of them?
2. Am I even on the right track
3. Is it an easy fix?
4. Anyone else dealt with it effectively?

I can live with it but if its an easy fix then ill give it a crack.

Cheers guys, still loving the AU. Gave it a wash today after about two months and the lines still get me.
