    I have an 05 prerunner. whenever the drivers door window is put all the way down it rattles and squeaks like a demon. as soon as I put it up, even an inch (some pressure on the drive) it all stops.

    any ideas on a permanent fix. I've done a search but couldn't come up with anything.

    thx.

    I added a bolt once...
    My 06 did this.
    Google "how to remove tacoma door panel" and some nice gal in daisy duke shorts will show you how to remove said door panel.

    Then, check all bolts inside the door...I had one fall out, and two were loose.
    I watched the video five times to ensure I did eveything exactly correct...;)
