Tried searching but nothing came up that really matches whats happening... the other day i noticed a really annoying rattling sound coming from the passenger side of the car... thought it was my seat or seat belt slapping against the window, turns out its the passenger door. It seems to be just barely not closing shut all the way. If push on it from the outside it will just slightly move in and something (maybe the latch?) is making noise. It may be moving only about a centimeter but it rattles like crazy when i am driving. gona look at it in the daytime tomorrow but just wanted to see if anybody has any suggestions.

thanks yea the striker bushing on the passenger side wasnt even there anymore... put some electrical tape on it for now working good, ordered a new bushing.

While your at it, replace the door to body gaskets. They are cheap and help the door stay tight, not rattle and block a ton of outside noise.

You do realize you can get the bushings from the part store for like $1.25 for a pack right? Some times it pays just to walk around a part store and browse for nothing and see what little things they have in the HELP section..
