It is a press fit door seal and if it is worn there will be a gap around the window and seal. Does air whistle and leak in? water? If that is not it the retaining nut on the inside holding the window to the frame might be loose or gone. Pull the door panel, clear moisture plastic, and then look inside the door for the bolts holding the window to the motor/frame. I remeber when I had mine it would rattle a little too but that is just the design of the door and the seal. Some cars have doors with a full frame around the window when you open it and some cars, like the avenger, are open and seal to the car when the door is shut. 94StealthTT 02-25-2006, 02:47 PM There is also adjustments on cars like Avengers with the no framed press seal windows. I dont know so much about it on an Avenger but I know that on a Neon, which has a similar design, there is a set of adjustment screws that tilt the window closer to the door seal. I would look to see if you have those. Automotive Network, Inc., Copyright ©2012
