Does anyone know how I can stop a rattle in the door pillar? This inconvenience has plagued my 99 A4 avant since it left the showroom. Audi has yet to be of help!!!

<br>Peter -- Do a search (opening page of this site) for "B pillar rattle." You'll find an archived post from Kyle that may address and solve your problem, which happens in my car once in a while, too!<p>BDW '99 1.8Tqms

I assume you're talking about the B-pillar. To me it sounded like a rattle. What it was in my case was the black metal outercover of the b-pillar was rubbing against the inside rim of the door opening (at the top-backside). If I opened that back window, my sound would go away. My fix was to spray a small amount of silicone spray around the top edge of the metal cover where it touched the rubber/plastic inside lining of the door opening. hope this works for you - it worked like a charm for me.<p>Tom<br>1.8TQMS Silver/Ecru
