Rattle when going over uneven pavement on drivers side panel?

All of a sudden, I have this rattle when going over uneven pavement on drivers side panel. Its not the speakers, and its hard to locate. I guess it may be sometihng loose inside the panel itself. Did anyone have any rattle similiar to this, and can they give me some advice to remove it. Acura never seems to be able to identify the problem

Mine comes from the upperside of the drivers door (maybe very near the window), and is just when the window it is up (almost always).

Any clues?

You mean inside driver's door panel ( where the red security light is ). I got annoying ticking sound right inside the door panel behind security light when I go over uneven road

Mine also comes from the window and I've located where the problem is but I can't fix it.

The rattle I hear is coming from the lower-left corner of the window. If you put your finger between the glass and the surrounding frame at the corner, the rattle goes away.

I had told Acura about that rattle during my last service and they "couldn't hear it". Now I'll give them more specific information and see if they can hear it.

BTW...anyone else still have the rear deck rattle? I've had it since day one and Acura still swears they can't hear it every single time my car goes in for service. I'm really to the point where I want to get rid of the car because it drives me up the wall.

My dealership tightened my rear deck. I think they put some tape around the edges. it significuntly reduced the rattle, but not 100%. they did not even bother reproducing the problem, they just took my word and reassembled it. I guess people complain a lot about that.
Dude, give up fighting rattles and noises.... the whole car is prone for things like that. you will only aggrivate yourself.... its not worse it.

I have the same rattle!

I have that rattle, too!

Let me know if you get it fixed, particularly the window rattle!
