Rattling/ wind noise from front door at speeds above 50mph

[Marbach92]

I’ve had this issue about a week after I bought my truck. I hear this rattling noise coming from the door. I can’t pinpoint where it’s coming from

I have the EXACT same problem at about 70mph. I took it to the dealer and they replaced the top trim pieces on the roof. I don't think that solved the problem.

It happens a lot when its hot outside. I think this is similar to the Tundra issues (look up TRD Jon's videos).

Let me know what you find out b/c its extermely annoying.

I think I have found the source of some of the wind-related rattle noises in my 2024 Tacoma. In my TRD, the noise starts around 65 mph and is sometimes louder than other times. It has existed since the day I drove it off the dealership lot. It sounds similar to the recording on this forum. It is distinct from the outside air turbulence you might normally expect to hear. Today I tested two areas by temporarily securing loose pieces with foam to prevent any potential vibration-looseness and to see what effect it might have on the noise at high speeds. Check out the images. Images 7867.jpeg and 7866.jpeg are under the front of the truck directly below the radiator. This piece is exposed to air turbulence and when tapped upon with my finger, it felt loose and noisy. The other area I found 7865.jpeg is under the hood running front to back, along both the passenger and driver's sides. They are both thin, flimsy pieces of plastic that also appeared loose and potentially noisy. I gently but firmly packed foam there as well. So far, after driving it on the highway several times, 90% of the noise is gone! Still testing to be sure.
