I recently notice that my car's passenger side door makes a rattling noise. This happens every time I ride on my car for about an hour drive. Then I can hear that kind of noise from 7000-9000 rpm. Don't know why? Before, I think it is because the hardtop, but yesterday, I took off the hardtop and drive with the top down for an hour. after I close the top and then I still can here that kind of noise.

anyone has any idea?

 

I noticed a noise from the passenger side of my car too At first I thought my passenger seat was too fat back and was banging on the roll bar thingy, but it is still there.

I have a '02 btw

 

could it be the passenger seat belt buckle? try putting the drivers side seat belt on and see if the noise goes away.

 

do a search on this - there was talk a couple of months ago about a clip that can fall off inside your door and make noise - happened to a few of us, including myself.

 

Also have a '02 and "the noise". I thought it was the passenger airbag, but passengers insist it's down to the right of them. I also only here it after a few miles of driving. Current theory I'm working on is the door is barely touching the dash, as it "kinda" sounds like a plastic or leather on plastic or leather sound. I'm gonna put a sheet of foam-rubber betten the door and dash (when it stops raining and I can drive it again!) and see if "the noise" goes away. I donno, I'm a male, so noises like this drive me up the wall. My wife can't even locate the direction of the noise half the time.

 

the seat belt buckle sounds just like a door rattle.

 

Same problem, but I notice it with the top down. I thought it was the seat belt, but wasn't it.

 

thanks for the advises
Do you guys think I should bring my car to my dealer?

 

Well, I final got to drive it Saturday for about 3 hours. I stuffed a wad of soft foamrubber between the door and dash. It still rattles. Personally, I think the rattle is someplace ahead of the passenger airbag. I gotta get a male passenger to ride with me for awhile.

If you do take it in, let us know what they say. When I take it for the first oil change I will complain about it, but that won't be for awile. Let us know if you DO take it in, tell us what they say.

 

I was one of those.
