Angry Rattles are back!!!

After getting rid of my first set of rattles by simply pulling out the sunglass holders from both passenger and driver doors, rattles came back to me with a vengeance!
Now I have rattles coming from driver's door but if I open the window just a tad they’d go away.
I am getting to the end of my patience here...do you guys have any idea what's the source of this annoying rattle?
Thanks!

I got the same rattle on the drivers side door. I open the window just a tad and it stops.. I will keep u updated tommorrow as my car is going in for 2 rattles and some other issues...

If anyone else has this rattle please let us know, as i'm going in and would like to give them an idea of what to fix.. This rattle is the most annoying rattle that i have had..

I have the exact same problem. I took my car in 3 times and they replace the driver side door panels, but still no avail. The rattles always stay

This is just a shot in the dark -- but I had something similar with my CR-V.. I got some silicone spray from the auto parts store, sprayed some on a rag, and put it in the window crevices (put a bit on the edge of the window) and on the weather seals -- got rid of a ton of rattles from that rattlebox. The symptom was similar - it'd go away when the window was moved..

Give it a try.. you should do this yearly anyways, to keep your weatherstripping in good shape.

Yes I have the same exact thing and it just started at like 19k. Another thread suggested the silicon thing - I have yet to do it. But same thing - lower the window just a bit and she is quiet. Other than that one - no major, consistent rattles.
