Hi

Does anyone else have the rear window rattling, like its loose?

Happens in temps around -1 -2. I wonder isf its water getting in the gap around the window.

Have tried pushing the window from the inside, but seems tight??

Weird.

yup - open the window very slightly and it stops. Does it on all four on mine but havent booked it in yet. It's a problem on A3's as well.

I had a mobile guy come out and squirt some sort of silicon lube on the seals but it doesnt fix it. I guess the windows need adjusting

I am talking about the REAR window - as in the heated one at the back of the car :)

I "think" i have found the issue. The channel that runs around the window fills with water and freezes, and so causes noise when the car flexes.

Bit of a cr@p design if you ask me.
