Bad Speaker?
I will try to explain this as best as I can, so sorry if it is confusing.
Once my 8 is warmed up and I am idleing, my driver's side door has a very annoying rattling coming from it. If I push on the middle of the door panel, the rattling stops, but once I let go it starts up again. Also, when I play a song with some bass, it sounds like the speaker has something loose and it rattling around in it.
Now, does that sound like I blew out my speaker, or is there something loose in my door and I need to remove the door panel?

My passenger side door does something like this. But get this, you only hear it rattle from the outside of the car. 
So the inside sounds good, but people walking by will hear a rattle through the door. I can't find anything loose.
Do you hear the rattle from the outside of the car too?

There is a thread called rattle hunt 06 or something like that... it has instructions I'm pretty sure. It's not too hard. Pop our the mirror black part where the switches are and there's a screw behind there. Look in the 'trash compartment' and there is another screw in there. pop off the tweeter if you have the Bose package and then start popping the white plastic door clips out. be careful and if something doesn't give... check to make sure there's not another screw in there.
