    Purchased a 2011 black Tacoma Access Cab, certified; love the truck, but the doors rattle. Have taken it to 2 separate dealers, one replaced the window strips to no avail. The noise sounds like something sticking, like plastic, and pulling away.

    Clean the door seals and door jamb, also try spraying some silicon lube inside the door seals - they've been known to rub together on the inside and make noise.

    Will try, but I get the feeling that the noise is coming from inside the door panels, particularly the rear. Watched a video on how to remove, but I'm a klutz when it comes to taking apart and repairing, but real good in damaging. ;-)

    I know how that goes.

    It's pretty easy to pull stuff off though, a $7 interior panel removal tool from your local parts house will help prevent breakage.

    This is a common problem amongst taco owners. You can try making a tiny incision on the door seal and inserting a 1/4 vinyl tubing in there and it should work. I haven't done it yet. Only because I'm always blasting my music.
