I have aftermarket speakers in my doors and if I adjust my bass up just a little bit the window cranks rattle and its obvious to me. Dont reply "Well just turn the bass down" I have no subs and its just a little mid range bass. Anyways I was wondering if anyone else has this issue and found a fix for it. Ive taken the handles off and thought maybe there was a screw behind the knob I could just tighten down... Nope. Nothing I can tighten or adjust. Any help or advice would be much appreciated. Thanks

Seal the crank to the spline with a dab of RTV.
Not epoxy, not JBWeld, even silicone bathtub caulk would work, holding just enough to not rattle yet able to remove the crank in the future.

Mine did the same thing. I put a black rubber band around the knob and that portion quit rattling. I also put some moleskin (felt) on the backside of the "washer thing" and it doesn't rattle anymore.
