Door rattle

[bullard1255]

I’m at my wits end, I have a rattle/creaking noise that is coming from the center of the door panel or where the door striker is on the passenger front door. Has anyone had this problem? I’ve already done the mirror cover fix.

if it’s from the middle area it could be the DCM Which is located under the speaker area inside the panel. Mine rattled when playing music at Moderate to high volumes. Added foam behind mine and that fixed it.

I chased down a similar rattle in mine, ended up being the entire door itself having some play in it and the seal making noise when it was moving. Easiest way to tell is the pull the door "tight" towards you when driving over bumps where it usually makes the sound. If that makes improvement, you can then try wrapping some electrical tape on the door striker hook to tighten up the contact with the door. If that works, you then resort to adjusting the striker itself inward to make the door close tighter. This solved it for me in my case.
