Rattling front windows

[psybear]

Hi all.

I get an annoying driver's side window shake/rattle when the window is down just slightly for ventilation - like about a 1-2cm gap. I seem to get similar on the passenger side but not quite as bad (but that could be down to proximity). It disappears when the gap is about 3coms or more.

I'm wondering if it is a common issue - also wondering if it is actually being caused by the way I have fitted my wind deflectors.

I know I could check if it's the wind deflectors simply by removing them but I thought I'd check here first. They are the Climair type by the way - bought after seeing them recommended here, although I was surprised to see that they needed a locating screw as any wind deflectors I've had on cars were Heko and they didn't need screws. I mention this as if it is the wind deflector causing the issue I will likely have to reposition somehow which would involve drilling another hole...

Thanks.

I have the same issue...driving me mad. I have Heko wind deflectors so it's not those.

I'm tempted to strip the door down the weekend and see if there's anything obvious causing it.

Saves me pulling off the deflectors then.

Please let me know if you manage to solve it!

mines the same rattled before and after deflectors only really notice it when shutting the door when on site with the window down a bit

Same, I’m guessing we all have 6.1 vans, .edit .oh just read it’s also earlier vans as well
Yes be good to know the fix as otherwise we could be removing door cards etc, fiddling with stuff, replacing everything a dozen times till we find the cause of the rattle.

There isn't a fix as far as I'm aware. It's just the way it's built. Maybe there's a mod but I don't know of one.

My T6 is exactly the same when the windows are down within the range of the Heko deflectors. Quite annoying but i don't have them open so often as I always have the aircon on.
