Question Anybody's windows vibrate?

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone is having this same problem... When either of my windows are about half way open and I'm driving at highway speeds, the glass vibrates like hell

I have the same issue and I've had my car at the dealership *multiple* times for this issue only to either a) be told they "could not duplicate" the problem or b) have the window regulator tightened to no avail. It happens at low *and* high speeds for me.

Meh I usually have my music up loud enough so I can deal with it.
But it annoys the hell out of my mom though. She likes her quiet Odyssey van.

Plus it's winter time up here so the windows are up all the time and the noise isn't as bad but still there slightly.

Yup it's bumpy. But I don't find there to be any weird noises coming from the frame in cold weather.

There are so many small noises that the car makes. The passenger seat, blower fan, sun roof, windows, window controls, etc...
They had to cut costs somewhere to bring the cost down. Quiet was one area Toyota didn't care about.

when its like -10 or colder, the plastics creak so loud. it gets quieter as the car warms up though.

Pfft. The whole car rattles. Yes, my windows rattle, too. Sunroof, hood, both windows, both door panels, passenger's seat, and panel under the dash. I'm not even going to bother trying to have the dealership fix those. They're already giving me a hard time about making them fix the door panels a second time, and telling me they can't fix the rattle under the dash.

Mine does it with the windows up, almost like the top of the door is not shut all the way. I just started getting this rattle last week, after I put QuiteCar in my doors... Stock system sounds great now, and I dont feel like I have to yell to be heard at highway speeds, but fix one thing and break another with this car is getting old quick.

Please reread this thread. That's for a different issue.
