The rattle I chased down in my DR window was actually rubber being compressed by the glass and clicking.

Roll your window down a 1/2 then roll it up nd watch the top of the door frame.. the window will push it out when it reaches the top .. thus the noise.

To see if that was it jusr roll the window down ever so slight .. just enough to get rid of the distortion but not enough for wind noise. The drive it and listen.

I then coated all the rubber and the top of the window with the GM Silicone emulsion and it took care of it.
