    i searched over the forums, I only saw one post that was related to my rattle but without an answer.
    rattling sound from driver's door | PriusChat

    I notice there was a rattle coming from driver's side near the door/window while I was driving in uneven NYC road going about 30mph. I would not have noticed it had I not been on hold while speaking to someone over bluetooth.
    After spending few hours trying to figure out where the rattle is coming from, I have found out it's indeed driver's window. If I just open the window tiny bit, the rattle will go away.
    Anyone else experienced this? Any solutions?

    maybe when the window lift is up all the way,pressure is taken of the arm letting it vibrate against something else? you'll probably have to pull the panel off and have a look.
