Got a question about door panels
I replaced the window motors in my 2003 Z as they went bad after 5 years or so. Well, when I did, I noticed that when the windows are down and I close the door or go over a bump there is a lot of rattling noise from the door panel area. Also, one of the two motors has since stopped working in < 1 year. I suspect that this is because of the door panel being reinstalled improperly but I can't figure out what the problem might have been.
Any help would be appreciated.

They have been off a total of 5 times. Once for speaker install (no rattle afterwards), once for motor replacement (started rattleing) and 3 times since. Do you have something constructive to add to the thread?

I have this problem as well. I dont think its the door panel, but rather either the window or the window track. One of them isnt screwed down tight enough.
The reason I think this is that I've taken the door panel off many times to do cleanings before I actually replaced the motor and had no issues. Only after I removed the window to replace the motor did I actually have the issues.
I have some time this weekend to work on this, hopefully it solves the issue.
