Great video. Thanks for the walkthrough. I will add though that my vibration didnt go away totally with this fix. After putting the door back together and the rattle was still there, i dismantled the door again to find that the screw that holds the window regulator in place was ever so slightly loose. About 1 full turn and a nip later and the rattle was gone. Worth double checking all the other fittings before reassembling the door.

Had the same problem with my XF. The foam rubber must be of low quality to perish so quickly. Not seen this issue on other Ford influenced vehicles of the same era. I also noticed that the sound deadening foam blocks near the door lock may be loose. One appeared to be at an angle. They are stuck onto the inside of the door panel, but once again the glue perishes. They are a pain to remove but sometimes you can put double sided adhesive strips on them and the stick them back into the correct place without removing them. Worth doing whilst you are in there!

Thanks for the vids... very helpful. Next time you're in there with the door card off, you should Dynamat the doors. Go to town... hit every metal surface both inside and out. If you don't want to spring the $$ for the Dynamat brand name, get some non-branded stuff from your local Home Depot type store. Far cheaper. Why do this? It cuts down the ambient noise by several dB's. The car feels chunkier and more solid while the road noise is lessened. I did both front doors and the difference is quite astounding. And yeah, the stereo sounds better, too. Well worth the effort. Btw - I did mine while chasing down the exact same rattle.

This weekend I was going to do my front grille (black), unfortunately last week I developed a rattle on the rear nearside, really irritated me. So, with great trepidation I removed the door card (took me a while because I was maybe too gentle), nothing came to attention, nothing moved, the cables were all secure, nothing loose. Disappointed I replaced everything. Still the rattle. Usually I'm the only person who gets in my car as its usually too and from work, however that night I had to drop my son off at his girlfriends..........After that the rattle had gone!!! Turns out it was the passenger seatbelt wrapped around the seat, rattling around the door column. I was both pissed off and relieved. Moral. check the simple things before removing bits!!

Hey, you need to remove the door panel as well as the speaker panel inside and get a little flash light in there. Sometimes one can't see it, but its there. There could be a little stone or something that got in there. But my suspicion is that something broke previously, perhaps a window regulator and they left a piece behind.

@carfanfan3 жыл бұрын
I haven't. But the best thing to do is have someone go with you in the car and listen to isolate where the rattle actually is. Once you know, you can fix it. It's very general to know the area you have a rattle from, but when you know exactly where you can take things apart to see what's causing it. It might not even be the dash but rather the left door. Or it could be something your glove box. Make sure you have all your keys, coins and anything lying around the door bins out and then test drive it. I had a rattle in my center console and it turned out to be the coins I throw in there. 😉
