I know about defective door seals (of which I have so far been spared), but has anybody experienced a rattle in the driver's side window? I have a 4 month old 545 that has not made a noise until this week. It is intermittent and not affected by the window position. It's location right next to your head makes it noticeable and annoying.

You sure it's not the headrest? I have comfort seats and the drivers headrest suffers from the occasional rattle, especially if it's raised a little - and I thought it sounded like it was from the window when it first appeared.

Thanks. I don't think it is, but I will check it out when I drive to work tomorrow.
