Status: offline Just need a bit of advice, dont know if it is a common fault or whatever. But when I get my H2 upto about 75 mph, I get a fair amount of wind noise around the sunroof area . Could it be the sealing around there; or is it just a common thing. If it were not for the whistle of the wind, the H2 is dead quiet!

Um, it's a big brick. You are going to get wind noise.
However, I think the noise you are talking about is from the wind deflector. Not much you can do about that, except take it off and see.

Yep, that's what it is. I took my deflector off and it quieted down a little bit ... not worth the trade off in my opinion though so the deflector is back on!

you could try rounding off the edges, that diminish the turbulence some and quiet it down. or just turn up the cd player. i'd recommend a nice Captain Sensible CD, or The Damned's Black Album.

Could it be the sealing around there; or is it just a common thing. If it were not for the whistle of the wind, the H2 is dead quiet!

i had a similar experience yesterday, but from apparently the bumps near the windows on the hood. I was driving around with a friend just chatting and wasting time and he complimented the truck and how quiet it was.

But when we turned around on the interstate and headed intno a pretty strong (30-40mph) wind, some kind of a rattle seemed to happen on the hood of the truck. The only thing i can imagine it could have been are the fake air intakes.

i tried it with the mirrors folded in. diminishes the wind noise, but not the screaming of the bicyclist next to me that i couldn't see. i'll leave the mirrors out from now on . . . .
