That sounds like the official Nissan Service fix ... with a big hammer .....

Thanks bluecrab. I'll give that a crack as well. Have wrapped the door striker plates with electrical tape, will see how this goes in the morning on my way to work.

Apply some heat shrink to the u bolt/ latch as well, might help.

Only just seen this now.

Let me know how you go man as u have the same prob and is has slowly been doing my head in. I thought it could be the catcher in the middle but only ever think bout it when I can hear it so always forget to see what I can do.

I'll have to try this got the same problem

I had the same issue. Found it was the plastic sleeve on the top catch on the car itself. Just went to the wreckers and got one of a rolled near new Y61 and is good as gold now.

will have to keep this in mind for when mine starts to rattle.
