My old Boxster went back a few times for a leaking passenger door as they just tried to re-seal it using some sealant and it didn't work!

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

2 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Outcome without a verified action link

I had to take it back to the dealership where they took out the door card and fixed something that had worked its way loose.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I dont know if anyone can help, I have a facelift 996 C2 convertable. I have an anoying rattle in the drivers door. It sounds like a cable is loose and bangs against the door glass. Is anyone aware of this and what is the fix. Altern. can anyone tell me if and how I remove the door card to expose the window mechanics without making a mess. Also, if I do this will it affect the side air bags? Cheers Rich Migration info. Legacy thread was 136074

POST 2Original post

I had a rattling noise in my Golf drivers door too. I had to take it back to the dealership where they took out the door card and fixed something that had worked its way loose. Can't remember what it was but it was fine after that. ~ Maxie Migration info. Legacy thread was 136088

POST 3Original post

Rich The problem is that the doors have a membrane that is leak proof so you would have to re-seal it correctly otherwise you get water ingress over the sill of the car. My old Boxster went back a few times for a leaking passenger door as they just tried to re-seal it using some sealant and it didn't work! In the end they fitted a new membrane. Migration info.

POST 4Original post

hi - richard - i recently had a electric window seize on me - the interior panel comes off quite easy- the hard bit was locating the final screw which is hidden behind the baddge on the air bag cover. i expect your window mechanism - cables etc are at the end of life. cost £130-00+vat. the membrane (clear plastic inner cover i removed carefully and siliconed back in place. job done-dont worry about the airbag.
