Help.. Window rattles

Hi.
I hear this wind noise from both driver side and passenger side frotn windows when I drive on highway. Also, when my window is rolled half way down and close the door, I hear something rattle pretty bad... sounds like the glass inside the door is going to break or something..
Does anyone have same problem?
Does anyone have any idea what is happening on my windows?
thanks in advance.

i actually had the same thing happen to my windows, i think because of my system..
im not sure exactly what it is, but i brought my car to the dealer and they fixed it. (actually, my Godfather did so i dont really know what they did).
so if you're still under warranty go get it checked. Good luck

I hear wind noise and it feels like some cheap car..
When I shut the door with the window half way rolled down, the window rattles and it sounds like it could break the glass.

what year is your TL? the wind noise you are describing is very common on a lot of 1999-01 TL models. a big contributing factor to the noise is the big "ears" that are mounted to the sides (i.e. side view mirrors). Acura actually redesigned these "ears" for the 2002-03 models to help combat this wind noise issue. so in short, you may not be able to do much to eliminate the wind noises (especially if your car is one of the earlier 2nd Generation designs).

maybe you need to take your door panle off and see if any of the track is missaligned or loose.
