driver side window shudders

wondering if anyone experienced this:

when putting the driver side window down the window starts rattling and when you bring the window back up there is a faint squeaking noise?

i went to my good old tischer acura service center and have made an appointment to have them look at the window and my driver side seat which moves about when braking. sucks that they are giving me an enterprise rent-a-car instead of a acura loaner. the service rep stated they are all out.

I'm with you in spirit!

This was a 13 day stay for my TSX. My seat had play in it -moves back and forth when stopping. The dealer went to an outside vendor for the repair PO# 16905 Vend Inv # 12282 and
replaced seat track & replaced left side seat bottom seat frame.

Good luck. The door rattles are just the beginning. My TSX has been in the shop a total of 51 days for:
sunroof rattles
window rattles
wheel bearing failure
seat play
dash rattles

Acura knows about this. I have talked to Customer Relations in CA three times. I'm sure my dealer hates me by now. I've had 14 personal cars (From BMW to VW and Fiat in-between) 6 company cars and use Hertz 1-2 times a month for business rentals and have never, ever, had a car that rattles as much as the TSX

I think you are one of a very few, thank goodness.

I meant the window rattle and squeaking you mentioned.

No doubt, the TSX has rattles. Mine has them, but for a different reason.

Unhappy

well, i dropped the car off at the dealership today, they didn't have an acura loaner but enterprise gave me a chevy silverado extended cab(it's fun doing doughnuts at the office parking lot)

my service advisor called and first left a voicemail they need to keep the car till tomorrow just for "quality assurance". after work i went to the dealership to see if there was something wrong. he then tells me "honestly, we've been very busy and your car has still not made it into the service bay" i am thinking to myself what the hell are you talking about!?!?!?! checking out the window issue, the door issue and an oil change should take but a couple of hours.... i hope nothing bad has happened to my car and they are trying to fix the mess

got my car back and they fixed with window issue, now i can finally get some tint on the windows, any recommendations on what type of tint to get?

also, they ordered the seat rails for the issue with the seat moving forward during braking.

let's hope i don't encounter any more issues/problems.

they didn't replace anything for the driver side window issue they just "re-adjusted the track" the window is on. i will double check my invoice though.
