Rattling door panels - 99 Silverado nbs

[Dave12]

I just picked up my 99 Silverado LT yesterday and noticed that both door panels rattle a lot. Way more than my 98 Z71. Is this a common problem? Is there some way to shim them? They just seem very loose and somewhat flimsy.

Thanks,

Dave

The best way to fix the door panel is to replace any broken clips. The clips on these door panels are 2 part. A muthza and fathza (as my German buddy says) The mother fits into the door, sometimes when removing the door panel they come out with the father. And when replacing the door panel they do not properly engage into the door. You can start by just beating on the door panel to see if you can get the loose clips to engage. If this doesn't work, you will need to take off the door panel. I just wrote this up on the next thread.

Thanks! I'll look into that and make sure all my moms and pops are happily married. :mushy:
