I've had a rumbling or rattling noise coming from the rear of my car for a little while. I've since then fixed exhaust, gas tank, bumper, frame rail, and shock problems. I still have the noise and I think it is coming from the back window. Someone thought it might be the aluminum trim so I used masking tape to stop it from moving and then drove but the noise is still there.
I think that the bottom of the rear window is loose and banging against the black stuff. How can I stop this noise from happening?
Any help please :D
Thanks

The bottom of the window was not attached to the seal anymore. I cleaned the glass and rubber as best I could and use permetex auto glass sealer. I had to put it on a putty knife to get it between the glass and rubber, but it sealed up pretty good and no more rattle!
easy fix for $5!

Be better to cut it out and reset it. The rest of it is going to come loose eventually. Our glass guy gets $45-65 to do it, depending on the vehicle.
