Common Door Internal Rattles...
just wanted to see what everyone else has found to be common rattles that come from inside the door. when i shut the pass side door with the window up, there is a nice solid crunch. when i shut the drivers side, the outside door handles rattles as well as something else. when i shut the doors with the windows down, jesus, sounds like everythign is about to fall apart. just wondering what everyone else has done about their loud doors

There was a huge post with pictures on this awhile back... someone took off his doorpanels and looked inside. There were a bunch of loose things and stuff that has felt or something keeping it from rattling around... basically he took the panels off, looked at everything, and used common sense... went at it and tried to get rid of rattles and stuff... he said when he was done his doors sounded like new when he shut them.

I'll be watching this for replies too.
Pretty sure the door handle rattle is due to a broken spring--there's a cheapie spring on the outside of the handle...I think the only way to fix it is to replace the handle.

This is a REAL good post that James C did about fixing common door rattles.
