#70211, "window rattle. WTF?"




          

Every time I close my door my window rattles like its loose on the inside. I've pulled the trim off and the plastic but I can't seem to figure out what is missing or broken in there. My mirror is also a little loose. Whats going on? Any help is appreciated!
PS. its on the drivers side.THanks!

Dsmtalk.com has a write-up on it's homepage to fix the window rattle. I fixed mine last weekend (but their site is currently down at the moment). Use the GreatStuff too.

Is there anything else to do? I've already tightened down the felt padded adjusters and my windows still rattle some. I can't seem to figure it out, unless my tracking is a little loose somewhere, but that all seemed to be sturdy. It rattles the worst when the window is half-way down and I shut the door, but I'm assuming so because that's where the window has the greatest curve so the adjusters don't apply as much force. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the help. I'll give it a try and we'll see what happens

Over 12K invested. Over 3 years in the making. Capable of 27PSI. And still sitting in the Garage with under 75 miles on the new engine. So sad.
