I had a rattle that would only be shut up by pressing down at the back of the door and the bottom of the window. Stealership actually heard it and in all their skillful ability decided that they couldn't find it so they ordered an entire new door panel...fixed it.

Problem: Annoying rattle coming from passenger's side.

Cause: Seat belt partially retracted so that the clip part would rattle between the passenger's seat and the b-pillar.

Solution: Moved seat belt into full retracted position.

let me ask you did the rattle go away when you opened your window even a slightest bit??? and even if you close it did it stay away???

I have the same/similar problem starting. It's not a really loud rattle but it's there. It goes away if I apply a little pressure with one finger right by the pw/pl controls. Gonna pull the door panel off and make sure the screws holding that assembly are tight.

My rattle did go away when I opened the window a slight bit. I tightened up the window mounts but I don't recall doing anything to the tracks brakets. My rattle has come back so I'll look into this. I had fixed it for a while with some dynamat to the window channel (pulled out the weatherstripping).
