Annoying rattle/vibration sounds

[urbanjoe]

Hey,
lately while driving my 3 I have been hearing these little rattle/vibration sounds coming from what I think is around the door area (Driver and passenger side). has anyone had issue with these annoying sounds?

I plan on taking the door panels off when we get some warm weather and seeing if I can find anything loose, but until then I was wondering if anyone can spare some info on this.

Thanks for any input.

Anyone with 2010 experiences it? It was fine when it was warm, when it got really cold it was bad, but you can only hear it when closing door little harder, today its little warmer and you can't really hear it... weird

Not weird; search the forum and you will find loads and loads of threads on this topic. You will find that 1) this car makes a lot of noises and 2) they are worse in the winter. There are fixes for some squeaks and rattles, and others you have to live with.

If you had read the posts I listed above you would have seen that many people are experiencing similar issues. Best bet is to visit your dealer :)

I have the same problem (assuming it's the same problem).

Mine did that too. Couldn't find where it was coming from for the life of me.
Started when it got cold. After it warmed up outside the problem went away, maybe something was just frozen.

I took the door panels off this weekend and tightened any loose screws and it seemed to help with the rattles. So hopefully all goes well and it stays quiet!
