Just a thought, are you sure it is the window and not the blind.

Hi , Thanks for interest , the actual window is fine I think the rattle seems to be in the top pull down net roller that pulls down.
I don't know if the roller etc can be accessed or investigated , be
grateful for any info .
Cheers .... Eric .

I always travel with the net blind down, keeps it tensioned and don't get any rattle.

On our van the annoying noise at the top of the window was the long spiral spring which tensions the top blind.  The spring is wound around a central rod and clashes with it and adjacent spring turns.
Does your noise sound like one of these windows- a before and after video (One spring has been dismantled and coated with a thick grease)
