i was wondering what other kombi drivers do about their sliding door, is it just mine that rattles like there is no tomorrow, or does everyones, any suggestions how to stop it???

With a bit of patience, a bit of adjusting, a bit of cleaning and a bit of grease, the door can be made to not rattle. It is all dependent also on whether your locks, rollers and rubber are all in good condition. :)

Mine rattles a fair bit, after adjusting it looks like the rubber is the culprit after 27 years it has compressed beyond the point of no return.

Its the rubber weather strip seal that the door seals against on the body, same as your front door rubber.
