Awning rattle on GC

[Hammer]

Morning

I know this was a common issue on California's but anyone noticed rattle on the awning for GC? when a close side door it really rattles, at first thought it was the door but on further inspection its the legs in the awning even with awning tightly closed. If others have this have you come up with any solution or does the Thule 5200 not normally have these problems?

Thanks

open the awning just enough to see the 2 black anti rattle plates they slide on the rail mine had moved outwards.

I found that on my California the second awning we had rattled a lot. Took a close look and found that the actual legs were rattling on the casing at the top...I fitted a number of adhesive felt dots in different places and that cured all the rattles...

Can I ask if this was on a Thule 5200 awning as fitted to GC? reason I ask is can't see any black anti rattle plates.
