Window Rattle Fix!!!!
The Problem With The Window Rattling When You Close The Door And The Window Was Down Is There Is Supposed To Be A Felt Pad On The Front Of Both Pully wheels, The Reason I Didnt See It Was Because They Were Both Missing, I Removed The Pass. Door Panel Which Wasn't Rattling And Long And Behold There They Were. I Went To Ace Hardware And Bought Felt Pads For The Bottom Of Furniture And Stuck Them On using The Self Adhesive supplied And Problem Solved. I Usually Take Pictures And Post Them But Was Pressed For Time, This Is A Simple Fix When You Get The Door Panel Off The Pully's Are Right At The Top Of The Door And Can Be Easily Seen With The Window Down. Hope This Helps If Any QUESTIONS FEEL FREE TO PM ME AND I WILL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO HELP. GOOD LUCK!

If I open my door and leave it open and try and shake the window it moves quite a bit. I would say an inch or so back and forth. Is this the fix to that problem or just rattling on the highway or something?

window rattle
when you shut the door the window makes a terrible rattling noise, the only way to tell if this is your problem is to take the door panel off and look and see if those felts are missing if they are this is part if not all of your problem. try it and pm me or post if it works.

window fix
the felt that you need are the 1/2 round that you would use on the bottom legs of furniture not to scratch the floor, ill try to take some pics and post them when i get home, you can buy these in any home depot or lowes in the hardware section, once you remove the door panel and locate the pully wheels you will figure it out. hope this helps you, Im going to watch game GO GIANTS!!!
