Driver window rattle

I have checked the archives and there have been several posts about the driver's window rattling but none of them seem to state a conclusive fix. Is there a fix? Is this related to the B pillar or the door frame rubbing against the body posts?98 Volcano Black QM

Take the driver door off and you solve the problem.

Re: Driver window rattle

What kind of rattle/noise do you have? Does it change when you open or close the front window?Tom

Re: Driver window rattle

It goes away when I open the window, even the slightest amount.

Re: Driver window rattle

My dealer fixed this problem at my 7.5k service in July. He'd said that he'd seen several of these problems, and may have said there was a bulletin, but I don't remember. From my records:Removed drivers door panel, found . . . cables & guides very dry causing noise, lubed cables, reinstalled door panel. . . .Haven't heard a sound since.Jay 98.5 Avant 2.8Tip
