98 Civic Door Rattle

I have a bad door rattle in my driver side door. I don't know how to take
off the door or how to fix it. The passenger door doesn't rattle at all but
the driver side door rattles like crazy no matter what.

WHAT DO I DO?
Thanks a ton...

 

Try this:

While driving slowly on a rough road or bumpy parking lot, open the door
and hold it open just so it's not contacting the latch (3-4 inches).

Does it rattle now?

 

First, identify what is causing the rattle.
1. Open the door and lift it up and down. Quite likely the upper hinge is
worn out. Any slop is too much and hinges are easy (if a bit tedious) to
replace. Worn hinges cause rattles.

2. run the window down a bit and see if the window glass moves around.
Compare it with the other door. If the rubbers in the door frame are
displaced, the glass will rattle. Fixing usually requires taking the door
trim off. There's clips on the back of window winder: push the trim in
enough to see and push the clip off. Also press in clips and some screws for
the trim.
