Noisy Sunroof

Recommended Posts

Hi.

 

Anyone got any tips to prevent the sunroof creating severe wind noise at speed?

 

It doesn't leak but it's clearly not sealing properly when it closes. If I firmly push it forwards the wind noise vanishes only to return as soon as I let go. Any ideas folks?

Which sunroof is it? The factory fitted vacuum sunroof or one of the dealer/aftermarket fit offerings?

Mine whistles too at high speed (standard vacuum sunroof). What do the correct windscreen seals look like?

The seals for models with the vacuum sunroof have a raised lip on the top edge, which deflects air up and over the sunroof.

 

Non-sunroof models and the dealer/aftermarket sunroof models (which started life as non-sunroof) have a similar profile all the way around.
