'Light' rattle from passenger door.

[adamamam]

Is there a common cause of a light toned rattle from the passenger door? It sounds plastic in nature, as if something smallish is rattling around.

It seems to stop after the first 5-10 minutes of driving, but maybe I just don't notice it as my route tends to be slower for the first 5-10 minutes, so after that wind noise etc is higher...

Maybe it's a silly question, but I just wondered if there is a common rattle-origin!

Definitely nothing in the pockets (little stone or something)? Also remove everything from the glovebox, etc just to be sure.

I had a rattle in my driver door top right hand side of the door card, went away when you pressed it with your elbow but you can't do the same diagnostics on the passenger door when you're driving . You need a helper - any small children/wife/significant other?

It sounds like a stone etc in a pocket, but deffo isn't.

Yeah, I have potential helpers, but they're all completely rubbish at that sort of thing for some reason. I'll have to get them to listen harder.

It can also be the door pin (the lock and unlock pin) it is on a piece of metal that rattles in the plastic clips
