Wind noise!! by dmx1212

Hi, I have a 2004 toyota 4runner sr5 4wd with 12000 miles. I have noticed excessive wind noise...it almost sounds like an open window. The worst is above 60 mph, heard mostly from left rear door and right top of windshield. Anyone have any advice? Do the vent shields decrease road and wind noise? Thanks this is really annoying.

DMX1212,
        Check to see if the both rails are facing forward. You should see an arrow stamped on it where it slides on the track. Sometimes these are installed incorrectly. Afterwards, adjust both rails to a location just past the paint mark. This is the proper location when you are not carrying luggage. Your owners manual should have instructions on this. Now for the vent shields; if these are the add ons one sees in the autoparts stores to keep rain out, then yes, these can and do make wind noise.

Move the adjustable roof rack rails as far back as possible. This will get rid of some of the noise. I learned this from prior posts more than a year ago, and it works. Read back from day one to present and you'll learn all kinds of things, some that will surprise you (me too).
 
Myself, I feel the road noise is obtrusively loud. 1mm thicker glass would have fixed most of the noise.

1987 4runner, tighten up b4 school by countchocula

I would really appreciate some help with a few problems, so I can tighten up my truck before school starts. I won't be able to afford fixing it for a few years after I start.
    There is a weird stutter in power around 2000rpm, I replaced my fuel filter, and I got an o2 sensor, but I can't find it on the truck. My book doesn't help much there.
    I also have a crazy creaking sound when I turn to the left really sharp(quickly or bumpy road).
    I have already done some minor thing's with my truck just by looking at this message board you have all been very helpful. This is one of he best references I've been able to find.

My auto climate control light is flashing and I have no ac. I have replaced the solar sensor and it worked fine for about 4 days and then started flashing again, with no ac.

I presently have my 2003 4Runner V8 Limited in for the second time in less then a year for Air suspension problems. In both cases the air suspension stays in the fully inflated position. They replaced the compressor the first time in, and this time they tell me it’s the air drain portion of the compressor. Which means their replacing the compressor again.
 
You mentioned a recall, would you let me know if Toyota has issued a global recall on all their 2003 4Runner’s with air suspensions.
 
I also had the vehicle in for a wobbling sound, the problem was a drive shaft that was installed backwards on the assemble line. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
