My front passenger side door has recently started rattling and it is getting worse (more frequent and louder) by the day. I have seen issues related to the stereo system, but this is a rattle at the slightest bump in the road.
Not coincidentally (probably), the dealer did work on this same door over the summer, on the window and lock. I am wondering if they didn't screw something down tight, or if it is one of those clips used to hold the door panel not holding tight. According to the FSM, the clips should be replaced after removing the panel 3 times; I know they've had the panel off at least 2. Naturally this problem became evident shortly after the 90 day work warranty expired, so I'd rather not pay them to fix it, and possibly create another problem.
Does anyone have any suggestions about how to fix this? I am very reluctant to remove the door panel, but perhaps this isn't necessary? The noise can be lessened by pressing (putting pressure) on the door panel over the armrest.
