Thread: Rattling Windows

Yes, everyone with an Isuzu probably has this problem. The problem is (in my case anyway) that the felt in the top and sides of the slides has worn or got displaced. What it needs is to pull the whole lot out and get some felt strip and replace it all. I have not done this! What I have done is to put in place small bits of self adhesive felt (sold to stop furniture scratching your floor etc) in strategic spots in the channel. Lasts a couple of years before you have to do it again.

Mine rattle too and on my todo list.

I'm told the glass is a different thickness in counties to defenders (4mm vs 5mm from memory). That's pretty close tolerance by LR standards anyway.

Seem to recall a post where someone found a rubber supplier in Strathpine that sold the correct size synthetic replacement rather than felt.

i fitted new felt to mine last year or early this year, cheap as chips, searchfor a post under my nickname as i listed the supplier and part number, one or two other guys have done it since

i hate it when others say do a search so here you go
