Anyone's back window rattle?

Now that the subs are installed, I've been enjoying them quite a bit.

However, the back power window rattles like crazy. Hard to hear in the front, but in the back seat I can hear it bad because its at ear level.

Anyone? Is there a fix to that? Doesn't appear so..

My rear window rattles like crazy, sliding glass window of course. Also the very top of the roof by the rear window, which im thinking deadner will take care of that problem. As far as the rear window the only thing I can think of permanently seal it up, which i dont want to do.

the only way we fix them at the shop is to get a solid window. other rattles may be the cab vents. those can be fixed with dynamat along with the roof.

seams like foam edging around the slider glass should stop the majority of it as there would be a tighter fit.

i had the same problem. however, my rear slider was missing some of the factory weather stripping. so i went to auto zone and picked up some thicker stuff with adhesive tape and threw that on there... sorta temporary but it works. no rattles

wow, so this is a little old- but if you are still looking for the fix-
refer your service tech to TSB 05-24-03 [Rear window squeaks and rattles] this will either get you a couple temporary fixes, or a brand new rear slider...

in my case, two attempts to fix it, and then a full replacement- works perfectly and is silent now!
