I have a 2002 I35 with real low mailes (35k). Anyway, I've noticed a slight rattle in or around the passenger door. Anyone else hear this? Any solutions?

About the only thing you can do is remove the door panel and see what it might be.

I heard the same thing in my 02. In my case, the rattle was actually originating from under the passenger seat. The power seat wires aren't very well secured to the seat bottom, so they rattle against the sliding track.

I have an '03 I35 just rolled over 65k and for the past few months I also have heard a rattle but mine is coming from the center console between the shifter and the foot heater vent but on the passenger side of the car. My service writer fixed it but it came back soooo wat I did was take an envelope and fold it a couple of times and stuffed it behind the plastic cover and Voila!!! Rattle disappears...

Couple of things that I deadened when I did my Dynamatting job:My A-pillar had some weird popping noise so I put a 2" x 24" strip on the frame under the cover (pops right off).The little light in the door panel is loose and makes a little noise.

I would get some deadening material and then pull your doors off. You will need about 12 sq. ft.Door Panel Removalhttp://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread/157798
