Rattling noise on 06 TL - Acura Forum

RJDR150 · 04-20-08, 06:40 PM

Hi! I have this rattling noise which seems like it is coming from the drivers side back window. It sounds like someone is tapping on the window with their fingernail.

Anyways, it seems to go away when i open and close the door associated with that window. but this at times can make it worse.

I noticed it around 5k. I took it to the dealer too and to my luck the car didn't make a peep when I drove it with the service manager to diagnose. I took a day off from work to fix this and what a waste of day.

anyways, i have close to 22k and it still makes the noise and it definitely more noticeable when going over bumps or rough roads.

Please help. Its ok when I have the radio blasting but it really does feel like a torture chamber with that noise constantly going off.

This may be similar to the problem that I have with both of my front doors. The rubber door seals seem to stick together and cause this rattling sound when I go over bumps or bumpy roads. All I have to do is put some silicone spray or Armorall on a rag and lubricate the door seals and it stops for 1-2 months. The sunroof may do the same thing after a while.
Let me know if this helps.
