I have a coupe and I have a rattle in the passenger door. I have tried to track it down, but can't seem to find out eactly where. Had the door apart window up and down and I still cant find anything loose.
It's gotta be a gremlin in there.
I have heard of Trunk Monkeys, but door monkeys???

first, find out it the problem is twice as noticable at 140mph.

second, have a young lady lean over with her head in you lap, ear to the handle, and see if she can detect the problem.

post again if anything else comes up.

Default Rattle at 70?

It's amazing how Alzheimers makes you act like an infant again!

Or were you talking about some sound at a certain speed?



Sorry! I couldn't help myself. As Steve Martin said, "Comedy is not pretty!"
