Default Radio buzz...

I've noticed that there is a buzzing noise on my drivers side door when playing the radio. More so with songs that are heavy with bass, even with the bass at +1 or +2. Is there a fix for this? Is this the same as the bad amplifier problem or something different?

Does it sound anything like a light rattle on the door panels? If so, there are quite a few posts dedicated to this noise in the door panels, and how to go about resolving them.

Yes, the vibration does seem to come from the door panel but only with the radio on and only when the voices or music are deep and hence have a lot of Bass. If the radio is off I don't hear any buzz or vibration in the driver's side door panel. Do they have a fix for that? I haven't found any yet. I'm taking my car in for the 1000 mile check in about 2 weeks and will ask them then unless someone has a fix I could try now.

Thanx,

Check this FAQ thread:

In my instance, the dealer ended up padding the door panels. They have held up quite well. With 12.5k miles, I am begining to hear small rattles again. It may be time for the dealer to take a look at this one more time.
