Already out of original warranty and rattles and the such are not covered under the Platinum Plus extended warranty I have. ...even though I have complained of rattles on at least 10 of my 14 or so oil changes so far. Thats why I was hoping someone could elaborate on this TSB...dealer just says it does not apply. It may be something I can even do myself...if I knew the details...

NV010R-03: Body - Front Door Glass Wind Noise....I see it referenced on the net but have no details. Anyone who has this TSB or has had it performed, please let me know the details. The dealer is of no help..... Re: prior post: The vibration in question comes from either where the drivers window seeds itself into the seal (on the top or back side or both) OR from where the seal itself seeds itself into the door frame. It will occur over bumps and at high speeds and sounds like a vibration, similar to wind noise but worse. If I apply outward pressure to the window while driving, the noise stops. If I lower the window just a click is becomes quieter. This morning I pulled the upper and back side seal out of the door frame (this is where the upper window seeds itself) and pushed some felt in. It got better but I have done this before and it eventually comes back.

Now I am told the TSB is: NV010R-03: Body - Front Door Glass Wind Noise....I see it referenced on the net but have no details.

I had the windshield cowl replaced. BLYMEY! I thought perhaps a new TSB had been released.

Hi. I hope I am posting in the appropriate place. I have a 2002 Camry LE automatic 4cylinder purchased new 3 years ago. It has performed flawlessly sans rattles, creaks and vibrations. The dealer has (to a degree) quited several of these. They added some felt around the radio to quiet a vibration from there; that one was 90% successfull. They added some felt around the passenger dash speaker; that one was successfull for summer months, I wedge a stuffed animal in between the speaker grill and windshield to quiet it in the winter. They replaced the winshield cowl; that eliminated aboyt 75% of the noise from there. Each oil change they tephlon all door seals; that quiets ticks an pops for a few weeks anyway. They have been unable to do anything about the seat belt tensioner rattle/vibration...it is there maybe 50% of the time. The number one offender though is at ears height and appears to come from the weather strip that the window seeds itself in to at the top of the drivers door. All along they said the best they could do was to lube it. It has gotten progressively worse. It sound like cross between a vibration and rattle. You hear it over bumps and at high speeds. At this point they say it would no be covered anyway since the car has over 3 years on it. (and my platinum plus warranty does not cover it) I argue that it has been there, getting worse since day one. Anyway, I have wedged some felt in all areas and at times it does get quieter but I have been unable to locate the exact offending spots. I think it is where the seal goes up into the door frame. Anyway, I heard there is a TSB: # NV01003 that deals with door rattles and wind noise. My dealer says it does not apply to my car and does not provide the details...of course the cowl replacement was not for my car either....it was eventually replaced though. Does anyone have any details on this TSB or better yet a proven fix to this annoying issue? THANKS!
