my drivers door has an annoying rattle, i took the door card off yesterday and everything is secure so I can't understand what's making the rattle.

It's still rattling has anyone else had this problem and how did you fix it?

Cheers

I had the same rattle on passenger door.
I used some silicon grease on the door seal and it cured it.

I've got a rather annoying squeaking noise which I can't seem to cure, I know it's coming from the door pocket plastic but I can't seem to work out how to fix it.

Check the little hinge locking screw on each hinge. Normally covered with a black plastic cover. They come loose.

If its at the top it may be the rubber seals. Wipe talcum powder on all the rubber seal faces.

Well I bought some silicone spray (wd40) and the squeaking has now stopped. I can now relax when I'm driving.
