the rattle has returned i think it may be the handle to raise and lower the seat feels a bit looser than the drivers side booked it in for when it goes for the front bumper doing.

eeeeh, what are you insinuating???
Here are more than ham, sun, and beaches, eh??? (btw i'm veggie)
and of course the world football champions
(and my fc.barcelona, of course) xDcheers!
I have a theory, i think it is the rubber seal at the top and side of the door (the outside seal).
try to push the door when it is closed with your fingers (right at the top edge of the window frame where the rubber seal is) from the out side and listen. it makes a sound like you rub a finger on a balloon.
i usually clean the top edge of the frame and the noise stops for a few days.
right where the yellow circuit is.
Remember the sound is amplified on the inside of the car by many times.

Well mate i think you may well have solved the door rattle problem , or atleast i hope so.
We went out and did about 300 mile yesterday round trip, and both of us had a real good listen to the door seals. rubbers on lots of differant road surfaces, and it does seem like most of the noise is coming from the rubber door seals.
So i think the first thing to do is polish inside the door, then what kind of spray would you use on the rubber to make it moe slick and less sticky, need some advice on what to use, maybe that silicone spray i don,t know ,what do you think.
Cheers.

Well i have this Meguiars rubber cleaner now, and this morning i polished the paintwork on the inside of the door shut, and the door itself, then i applied the rubber spray on to a nice clean rag and went round the whole rubber seal including in the fold of the rubber seal it went on nice and easy left it to soak into the rubber a short while, then we went for a trip out this afternoon about 40 mile round trip on some real bumpy roads. was out for abut 3 hours one way or another.
I have only done the passenger door so far , but it was nice and silent so we will see how that go,s now and tomorrow i hope to do the same to the drivers door.
The rubber seals do seem to be the main problem.
