RE: Window Rattle With Convertible TOP uP
Well, I do know that once I close the door the window slides up slighly to seal it self with the top..are your saying that your window your window does not slide up? or that the top seems to be too tight on the window?

It does slide up. what imean is that it is such that if you don't push it pretty hard, it won't shut all the way, and it seems like even though it is down a bit the window still moves outward as the door closes.

You NEVER want to raise the front windows first and then the rear windows in a convertible. The rears have a rubber seal on them that the fronts "roll up" into. It the rears are raised last this seal can break or bend and stop working.

mlawdawg - I'm not really sure what you mean in your last post - can you explain it again - I just want to check if the same thing is happening on mine (I have the same car and color as you btw).
"it seems like even though it is down a bit the window still moves outward as the door closes. "
I'm not really sure what you mean by this. Also, like youe, when I open the window even a bit, the rattle sound goes away.
I guess the best thing would be to take it to the dealer but that is always a hassle so I hope there is some fix.
