Default do your windows rattle when cracked down a bit?

My windows, especially the passenger side one rattles when I crack it down an inch or so. The driver side window does it as well.

Its pretty much done this since I bought the car. Anyone els? Design flaw or something maybe warranty will fix?

no mine does it as well. I noticed it even more now that I have rainvisors. I dont think it would be a warranty issue, unless something breaks.

I have 1st gen xb and it does it-3 things have to do with it for the most part

1) The tall window (not as much on 2nd gen)
2) the thickness of the glass (thinner than some) and the less infringing seals than some other cars that make the motors work harder and make them burn out faster
3) the aerodynamics-tallish (more on 1st gen) and more upright windshield causes the wind to wrap around the a pillars more than a laid back design....
