Simple fix to the driver's window seal rattle

If you guys notice a driver's side window seal rattle/crinkle noise that goes away when you lightly push on the window/door, this may be your fix.

The location of the noise is coming from here, at least on my truck. You can tell by tapping it and you'll hear the crinkle noise as it's tacky and the slightest vibration produces noise.


To resolve, gently pull back the seal and use some synthetic silicone grease (or another alternative that won't harm the rubber) on the end of your finger and just lube up the back of the seal.


I did this several days ago and completely forgot about it until this morning when I turned down the radio and there was absolute silence. I then threw on a track that produces some bass as that would also trigger the crinkle noise and that confirmed that it's resolved.
