SUBJECT:
RATTLE AND/OR WIND NOISE AT REAR DOOR STATIONARY VENT GLASS
MODELS AFFECTED: 1985-1987 DE VILLE AND FLEETWOOD SEDANS
Some 1985-1987 De Ville/Fleetwood four door sedans may experience a rattle and/or wind noise at the rear door stationary vent glass. This may be
caused by movement of the rubber channel between the glass and door. Both hard top and vinyl top vehicles can be effected.
Use the following procedure to correct this condition.
FIGURE 1
1.
On vinyl top vehicles the rear door window opening trim is retained with screws on the top, front and rear sides, and clips on the bottom side (refer
to Figure 1). The screws can be accessed from the door jam area around the window frame with the door open. One screw on the front side is
covered by a vertical molding that can be removed with the door open. With all retaining screws removed, the bottom of the window opening trim
can be disengaged from the door by inserting a flat bladed trim removal tool between the door and trim, and prying upward.
