please keep me informed of fixes. i am yet another owner to confirm this. coming exclusively from the driver door handle armrest area. to solve this i have just been riding with my elbow there for a little bit. heres the funniest thing. this buzz is not the worst with music cause you can just turn the volume up to drown out the buzz. despite having the so-called premium system, i am an AM talk radio nerd and thats where this is the worst. The bass in the talkers voice seems to make me notice it the most and unlike music you cant really blast talk radio, damn that Tony Kornheiser, and Dan Patrick/Rex Dibble are even worse.

It always helps if you leave the windows cracked on mine....not b/c of road noise but simply b/c the bass can clear instead of rattling the plastic all day. just my .02

Default door buzz fix

I have the same door buzz problem while driving worse when the stereo is on. Took it to San Rafael Nissan and they put electrical insulation tape around the control plate that comes in contact with the door arm rest. The problem is now fixed. I'll let you know if this lasts.
