Is it very different from a pretty noise?

Yup, if I close either door with the windows down, it sounds like the window is slamming into something inside the door. Sounds pretty bad.

my passenger side does that too. It happens on mine when the window is up... sounds like the glass is hitting metal... like the motor isn't working right.

Simple fix...

Wait until you close the door to roll down the windows!

Well, there is the side intrusion bar in the door, and the window has to go *somewhere* when it's down...
