door panel squeak

[pukeleeland]

My door panel seems to be squeaking when driving on rough roads. Only the driver side door does it and it seems like the panel is a little loose. If I pull on the inside door handle, the panel doesn't seem to be tight. Has anyone else experienced this?

mine is pretty tight, even after I removed it to install tow mirrors last week.

Is the door panel supposed to be tight? The screws that hold the panel on are tight, but the panel does move up and down (maybe 1/8") and is probably responsible for the squeak and rattle.

the panel is installed kinda ******. There is one screw by the door handle, and then 6-8 "screws" that push into a grommet. Then it has hooks on the back of the panel to hold it to the door.

It will move some - but not too much. Check the screw behind the flap there behind the door handle. Make sure that is tight. thats the only one that really does much.
