Ive been saying ever since I got this car that when I hit a bump it sounds like a door is open. Ive searched this that and the other. Had a mechanic give it a once over. No results. Last night Im outside and I walk around to ck all the doors make sure their locked and I feel it...
The passenger door , though latched and seemingly sealed can be moved back and forth every so slightly. Like maybe 1/8" to 1/4". Today i got a closer look at it and dont see a thing.. Nothing looks worn, bent or out of shape at all. I even tried loosening the strike plate? on the body and shoving it as much as possible towards the vehicle before tightening it thinking maybe there was some adjustment there but that did nothing.
When you shut and lock the door you can still move it in and out just enough to cause that irritating rattle..
Im guessing Im going to have to pull the latch off inside the door but cant find any videos on doing it... Hoping someone here has had to change 1 before .....or maybe there is something else causing it Im overlooking????
