Sliding door rattle

[gavandi]

Hi.....do others find their sliding door very noisy when travelling?
On fast, smooth roads its not a big issue, but on bumpy country roads the noise from the sliding door is quite deafening.
Every pot hole is accompanied with a disturbing rattle and crash.
Anybody found a remedy?

Ours doesn’t, it’s been insulated and lined with carpet and trims, no noise. Maybe it’s too loose when shut, some adjustments could be made to keep it tight against the rubber seal?

Yep....ours is lined etc...
It's like it jumps when road very rough/bumps.

Check that you have the rubber spacer in place. It sits in a hole at the top of the slider at the rearmost edge.

It’s easily fitted and obtained off fleabay … if I can recall the name!
