Tiguan :: Rattles When Closing Door With Window Down


Jul 13, 2016

I'm not sure if this is just my unit, if so maybe I will talk to the dealer, but I noticed that the door 'rattles' when you close it while the windows are rolled down. This is true of all the doors.

I think basically the glass from the rolled down window shakes about when the door is slammed shut. You end up hearing the rattle and the general feeling is cheap. Other than that, the door feels solid if the windows are rolled up. I think maybe rolling it down, the window has less points of support on the free end. So it becomes looser and can rattle around. But when the window is rolled up, it has its free end fixed so it doesn't rattle.

So is it just my unit or does yours do that too? I noticed some cheaper cars I've either rented or test drove do this too. I believe the unit I test drove at the dealer did this too so maybe it is universal for all pre-2016 Tiguans?

Lexus SC430 :: Driver Side Door Not Closing When Window Is Up

I guess the roof needs adjustment since my driver side door won't close if the window is up all the way.

Checked the roof and found there is a larger gap on the passenger side than on the driver side. That causes the unevenness of the roof, I think.

Chrysler - 300M :: Driver Side Window Shattered Into Pieces When Closing The Door?

I have a 2000 Chrysler 300M. Recently I got in the car and shut the door normally, not a hard slam or anything, and the driver side window just shattered to pieces. After having the glass replaced I had my mechanic check out the window regulator thinking that may have have been loose or in some way caused the glass to break. It checked out fine, no problem with the mechanism could be found. I've been using the window since then for about 3 months with no problems. What could have caused this window to crumble?

Tiguan :: Rattles In Three Different Way While Radio Is Off

Is it me or rattles are common thing in Tiguans? I can hear at least 3-4 different rattles when the radio is off. I eliminated one by pulling iPod interface unit out and applying some felt pieces around.

It is now snug and quiet. I still hear one coming from the front passenger door, one or two from the back seat and possibly one more from the trunk area. There is also a faint buzzing noise when I apply gas, it sound like a loose or rattling heat shield or something (can't pinpoint that one).

I also wanted to ask how to remove a door panel, I'd like to take a peak in it to see if I can find the culprit myself before I get "problem can not be replicated" from the dealer.

Lexus GS 2013+ :: Rear Window Sun Shade Not Closing

Just purchased a 2013 Lexus GS 350 Luxury with 22,000 miles. I took it to Lexus service for a recall and the rear window shade was not closing on one side. Service declined to cover it under warranty because they claim it was broke by a child or person. I purchased the GS 350 at Manheim using me dealer friends incense. The inoperable rear window shade was in the condition report but I never thought Lexus would not repair it under warranty....

Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: Sliding Rear Window Not Closing All The Way

I have a 2010 F150 Lariat Super Crew. The rear sliding window does not completely close. I have read a few posts about lubricating the cable and tapping the window motor. I have leather seats with the rear arm rest, but cannot locate the window motor. I have lubricated the cable, on both sides while someone opened and closed the window.

I have attached a picture. The small metal crimp hits the black plastic stopper and the window is still open a crack. It is as though the window slid open more from its original spot. The small metal crimp hits the black plastic stopper and the window is still open a crack.

Golf/GTI VII :: Car Cause More Rattles In Resolving The Window Dilemma

Im tentative to take the gti into service for a window rattle/rub because I know they will pull everything off the door and cause more rattles in resolving the window issue.

However, the issue is when the windows are all the way up or almost all the way up there is this "rubbing" noise, not really a rattle, coming from the top corner of the windows.

Its almost like they are forcing themselves up to far and creaking over every bump in the road. Its loud enough (and close enough to my ears) that its pretty damn annoying.

Prius (2010-12) :: Driver Side Window Rattles

I notice there was a rattle coming from driver's side near the door/window while I was driving in uneven NYC road going about 30mph. I would not have noticed it had I not been on hold while speaking to someone over bluetooth.

After spending few hours trying to figure out where the rattle is coming from, I have found out it's indeed driver's window. If I just open the window tiny bit, the rattle will go away.

Toyota - Camry :: 2000 - Driver Side Window Quits On Way Up / Partially Closing

2000 Camry XLE. Driver's el.window quits on way up, but will start again if I wait for one or more minutes before retrying. The longer I wait, the farther up it will go. Not fun at toll booths on rainy days. Started a few month ago when I forgot to close windows and the controls got rained on. Initially, a blast of WD40 seemed to cure the problem, but no longer. Took arm rest controls out, but couldn't see any obvious problems. Is this an aging motor problem? Do I have to get ripped off by dealership serv. dept., or can any reputable garage do it? I'm worried about taking the whole panel off myself. Don't have the tools to do so, and don't want to rip "leather."

If I open additional windows or close the driver side window it goes away. I am sure it is an air flow issue.

Camry 2012+ :: Loose Driver Side Window - It Rattles When Driving Over Small Bumps

I noticed my 2014.5 camry has a loose driver's window. When rolled down between 2 to 6 inches, it rattles when driving over small bumps If I actually feel the window, it moves about 1/8 inch to the sides when open 2 to 6 inches. I mentioned this at my one year service. The tech showed me other 14.5 SE's they had the same problem only on the driver's window. He said the dealers can't do anything about it because it is how Toyota designed the cars.

Phaeton :: 2005 - Driver Door Not Closing All The Way

I have a 2005 Phaeton V8. 69k miles...not one issue until today when she was about to recieve her saturday bath-

I got into the car to back out into the drive- and noticed that the door didn't close all the way- I had to pull the door to get it closed. I went around assessing to see if the other doors would close- and they all do just fine. The power trunk works properly- Just this drivers door- So after she got her bath- shes been garaged and I dont want to drive her risking somethings wrong.

Is there a fuse to pull to reset the pump? Do I dare disconnect the battery (I've never had to do that on this car yet). Just wanting to avoid a trip to the dealer-
