Door handle rattling fix?

I'm sure there has to be an easy way to fix that rattling I keep hearing from the driver outer door handle.

I like my music loud, but I HATE that damn rattle. I think it might be coming from the other handle too, but I'm never in the passenger seat. :p

Can anyone help?

I ran into that problem 2 days ago. When i go over bumps, i can hear my driverside rattle. In fact I pulled over and i grabbed my door handle to shake it (while door is still closed) and there was that rattle! I drove 5 mins later and that noise was gone. I even shook the door handle and it didnt make any noise. I figured that it was cold outside and it may have something to do with it, i dunno. I'll keep an eye on it

I've got the same rattling problem. Can someone post details on what causes it and whether it's possible to fix it?

Thanks!
