Fixed my 2012 driver door "Window Rattle"

All,

I have a 2012 DCSB and my drivers side door window would rattle anytime I shut the door. It drove me nuts to the point that I decided to remove the door panel and take a look around. It seems the "bolt fix" for the first gens has been moved underneath the door panel for the second gens. I'm not saying this will fix everyone's problem - but hey, one can hope!

I've attached a picture that will show my loose bolt. I also made sure all the other bolts were tight since i had the panel off, but once i tightened this down, no more rattle!

Here's a good video to help you remove the door panel:

Good Luck!

But your post is good...I had to fix my 06 a few years back with the same issue.

 

so you tighten that bolt you pointed at or what?

 

Mine does the same thing, kind of a tuning fork effect. I'll have to pull the panel now .

 

Yes. just tighten the bolt. I don't have any torque specs for you, but mine was loose enough that I tightened it up with my hand before wrenching on it a bit.

 

For some reason, this video is slightly more informative. haha.

Yeah I agree, I'm more of a visual type of guy
