Rattle in my door

I have an 03 MCS. There are small reflectors in the doors that constantly rattle. I wondered if this is a common problem or if I am way to picky about having a perfect car?

Are you referring to the small round reflector near the top of the door panel?
if so, you can pop it off with a screw driver, put some 3M double stick tape,
and mount it back. should fix it. :smile:

thx

Yeah, the reflectors are what I am referring to. I am probably going to make a trip to the dealer soon. I have some other small issues that I am going to get taken care of as well.
