Driver Window Rattle at Rubber Seal

I have searched this topic but couldn't find a solution.

My Driver Side window rattles or rubs against the rubber seal around the top of the window frame. Has anyone else had this problem? What should I do? Thanks.

hahaha...i just recently noticed this problem...but i think my coilovers+sways+19" wheels=rattle monster....i have yet to find a sol'n tho...im with u bro

its kinda subtle in my situation, music on a low volume takes care of that...for me, im more concerned about the zipping sound the steering wheel makes turning at low speeds...anyone ever heard of that????

YES!!!!!

I have this problem. I reported it last time I brought my car in. All they did was lube the window or something. Didn't fix crap!

My rattle is in the lower left side, however.

I can prevent it from happening by just putting my finger at the "L" where the two strips meet.

Is it rubbing only when you open/close window, or it rattles/rubs when its closed and you are driving?

My problem that its skipping and shakes when I open it ( on the way down).
The dealer lubed it, and it worked well for 3 month, but now its back.... i had the same problem on my passenger side and they replaced window regulator, since then it worked fine...

I had the rattle on the passenger side window when it was closed. Acura never could fix it. I pleaded with them to replace the seal but they never would. They said wind noise above 65, which was their leagal limit they could test such issues, was to be expected.

It got worse tho. I could hear it at 40 and if the passenger applied pressure to the window it would stop rattleing. Once I told them that, they ordered the seal but I sold the car.. lol.
