Driver Door Window Rattle

Up here in MA, its been raining a lot. This morning when i drove to school, my car seemed fine. It was making normal sounds and all. When i got in it today and started driving away after it had been sititng in the rain all day, i heard an annoying rattle right at the top of the driver side door window. It sounds like a creeking noise and is making me insane. Has anyone ever had a problem like this? If so, can i have it fixed when i bring it in for an oil change or is there a simpler alternative?? Thanks.

You might want to try cleaning the rubber seals that make contact with the top of the window and then applying a coat of silicone to the rubber. I think what you hear is the window moving slightly against the rubber. There were a couple of threads on this and the silicone solution seemed to work. I have experienced this same window creak but I haven't tried the silicone yet. If you try it let us know if it solved the problem.
