Shake, rattle & roll?

[SteveGee]

Hi guys - not really all of the above; (just the rattle) but I thought the title was cool(ish)?

My 2012 IS 250 has only 93,000 kms on it - but the drivers and LH rear passenger door bump around like they are loose on hinges or similar? I took it to a local (non Toyota) body repairer; thinking it might just need adjustment of door hinges - but in his brief look, he stated that it was unlikely to be an issue since the doors sit and fit nicely and there were no unusual wear signs on latch etc?

Are they known for any issues that result in noises from doors over moderate road bumps? For example door rubber seal degradation etc? 😏

Cheers

Steve

Thanks Jon - I've got to go and get a couple of things from the Parts store today; will check for those. Would be great to get rid of this damn rattling!
Cheers Steve

remembering a slightly loose heat shield above the exhaust on my Ls400 set-up a rare but indistinguishing momentary " effect " going over one particular short road area in Faversham ........ not specifically thru' the doors but form there to wherever on the car

Thanks Jon - got some from eBay Australia - fitted & noise GONE. Now to get onto some rattles coming from the plastics surround the dash instruments and steering wheel shroud....

Cheers

Aaah - guys, the rubber door inserts initially fixed the problem - but only for a few days! I guess the rubber has changed shape somewhat, so that it again allows for door movement? Might try a second insert on the 2x problem doors - but that seems extreme with the rubbers around 5-6 mm thick?

Or - off to the Lexus dealer I guess? 😝
