That is probably why you get a rattling drivers door Bradders, should be a long rubber door stopper there

I think there is probably more to it Tim, Brad said he was getting a window scraping noise when taking it up and down, I'm not getting that and tbh, I wouldnt say my door is rattling either (as I say, I hadnt even noticed mine missing ).

Have you tried taking the panel off and having a look inside for any tell tale signs of previous damage before you take it to the stealers??

Also peel back the seal between the top of the door outer panel and the side window and check there isn't dirt behind the seal 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

A little fairy liquid or tyre fitting paste on the tip of the stopper before offering it up to the hole will aid the refit

The bumper is on but the weather strip around the door is hanging off! Its attached by a thin grey double sided sticky foam, which in this case is not that sticky.

Ive just spoken to the two garages that previously serviced the car and both have nothing to report - other than new pads and discs all round at 18k miles.

I'm off back to the garage this afternoon for a 'chat' with the sales manager.

I had the drivers side door seal replaced 3 times on last RRS - always came away in the same place - like it was never cleaned or prep'd correctly
