Driver's Side Window Rattle - Toyota 4Runner Forum

MarkDallas · 06-21-2023, 11:20 AM

Looking for some feedback if anyone has it. I have a rattle in the drivers side window when the slightest bit of bass from the stereo or occasionally just driving down the road. "Sometimes" I can silence it by rolling the window down and then back up to "re-seat" the window, but that doesn't work every time. I have not removed the door panel to investigate yet as I wanted to see if this is common and what others have done to remedy.

This has been going on too long now and it drives admittedly more crazy than it probably should. Any tips are appreciated.

I’m currently having the exactly same problem. Have u installed weathertech window deflector by any chance?

Following, I also experience window rattle on the drivers side. Almost exact symptoms as you. I figured whatever secures the window has loose hardware or the channel is worn. I haven't pulled the door panel yet though.

If you have installed window deflectors, take it off and see if that’s the reason. I had weathertech in-channel deflector installed and it started rattling after 8 months. Took it off and the rattling was gone.
