Default Drivers side window rattling

Anyone know how to fix my window from rattling. I have to roll the damn thing down about half way before it will stop. Is there a screw or something I can tighten?

I have had the same problem on my 98 TA, there should be 3 gold color guides with felt on them you probably have the one near the back of the car (still inside the door) broke or loose. You will have to take the door panel off to see them. I discoved mine was broke the the day after i bought my car when I tinted my windows. I rolled down the window and when i came back up i had a nice scratch.

I had mine fixed last year under warranty and it is back again. They said they replaced the track.

My 2000 Z28 does the same thing if the windows are not fully up or down. Someone once told me that's because of the way the glass is curved, there has to be a little play (rattle) in the window. If you notice that you door buldges a little inside when the window is all the way up or down.
