I have an '09, and I'm getting a buzzing sound from the drivers side door, front passenger side door, and a rattle from the rear of the car that sounds like a bunch of loose golf clubs.

I'm at about 3100 miles and my first service is at 5000. Hope the dealer can address the issue.

Did you ever find a fix for the door rattle? Thanks!

Recently I started hearing a rattle coming from the driver door and figured out that it's coming from the door trim, so I'm going to pop the trim and add some felt behind the area where it's rattling. Hopefully that solves the problem because it's really annoying.

Did the door buzzing go away after popping the trim?

Sorry, I've been busy and haven't had a chance to give it a try.

And it begins...

I have similar rattles. I'm not sure how to open the panel. Are there screws or just tabs? And if the Aluminum panel tabs easy to break?
