General Bravo door rattle and glass thud

[kmb]

Hi,
My 2008 bravo door has a slight rattle and if you put down the window in one go there is a bang like the glass realigning itself.
If you go slow,on and off it is okay.
Any ideas what it is?
Is there a manual for removing the door card as it is a sport model and has the electric windows etc
Or is it due a visit to the garage for a remedy?

Search for the bravo elearn cd rom, that's the software that contains all the plans and instructions.

The problem you describe is a loose screw or bolt in the window mechanism. I wouldn't move the window until it's fixed if I were you. Don't risk having the glass fall off the metallic arm holding it inside.

When you open the door card, you should do it slowly and careful so as to not damage a plastic cover inside. you'll know what I'm talking about when you get to it.

My driver's side front has done this since I got the car over 3 years ago.
About 3/4 of the was down there's a 'clink', but never anything on the way up.

Want to swap passenger doors with me? Then we'll both have matching pairs

Actually, mines more of a clunk, so you could "Clunk Clink, every trip"

It looks like i am not the only one with the problem.
I better pop of the door card when i get the chance and see whats happening.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Sounds like a plan.


Hang on. Why do I get the dodgy ones?!?!
