#3 of 6 Re: Edge rear window noise [blustreak21] by lau123 Nov 13, 2007 (10:03 am)
Replying to: blustreak21 (Nov 09, 2007 6:38 pm) Yes, I noticed the bad vibrations and piercing sounds to the ears also with the rear windows partially down. I had never had a vehicle do this before. The dealer told me that "Yah, that's the way they are. They're tested in a wind tunnel for aerodynamics only with the windows up". He showed me a Service bulletin about it with the solution being to "open the front windows a bit". Really annoying. Maybe some people only drive with the windows up, but around here in summer people don't use AC and open windows. Guess we will have to live with it.

As mentioned above, you simply need to roll down another window slightly. Usually in the front. Basically it balances out the air flow in the "cabin" and cuts down on the annoyance significantly. I had the same problem with a 2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport and rolling down the front window even a pinch solved the problem.

Replying to: lau123 (Nov 13, 2007 10:03 am) Yeah, they showed me a service bulletin too. Down here in South Texas, you can't really say we have much of a winter so I like to open the back windows while I'm driving. It is annoying, but at least it goes away when you crack another window open. I'm also glad to know I'm not alone on this...Thanks all for replying!
