Annoying driver door rattle

Hi guys!

I have this annoying driver door window rattle when it's fully closed only (and it's like only 50% of the time, if I turn it down only 1-2 mm it stops). It has been there since the day I bought the car (26 000 km, now at 59 000 km). I'm wondering if anyone else had this problem (couldnt find any when googling it) and if so what they did to fix it.

AFAIK, it's probably the weatherseal that doesnt hold the window thight or a loosen screw on the mechanism.

From an Aygo forum "same problem here and found it was the seal along the top part of door, every now and again I apply some silicon to the seal, i.e. furniture polish or something similar, the door vibrates slightly against the seal and hence it sounds like a rattle, when lowering the window the tension is relieved and the door moves ever so slightly away from seal.I found the problem when driving along I placed my fingers between the door and seal and gently applied enough pressure to move the door ever so slightly out , the noise went off."

Do you think I should try this silicon thing? I dont have any furniture polish should I try something like Simonize? Thanks for your help!
