The vehicle came with 3 years of oil changes from the dealer. So, they performed all the oil changes during the period this problem started. However, these folks were so incompetent with other issues, it wouldn't surprise me at all if they operated on the discount franchise level.   Where exactly are these baffles, how many should there be, and what do they look like?   It needs to be windy to hear the noise. If I drive 80mph on a calm day, there is no noise. Throw a 10MPH wind in the mix, and the noise is pronounced at high speed. Driving low speed on a very windy day also produces the noise.

Replying to: flyabus (Jul 26, 2009 9:35 pm) Did anyone resolve this issue? I have a similar issue with my 2004. When windy or at high speeds, I hear a 'click", "rattle" noice near the front left lower corner of the windshield which sounds like something under the hood. May be something stuck in the ventilation area or just a bad bushing or something. Let me know if anyone had any luck with this issue.

Replying to: hudson125 (Nov 12, 2009 12:28 pm) I am noticing the same problem with my 2005 Sienna i.e. a sort of rattling sound from inside the hood on drivers side when i drive over 60+ miles speed. Initially I also thought this was due to some leaves stuck between the windshield and the hood or some loose connection but that is not the case. I took it to dealer and checked it thoroughly and they could not figure it out either. I still have this issue for last 2+years now.   Looks like there is no resolution to this sadly.

Replying to: visvaman (Nov 13, 2009 5:25 pm) Does wind have any effect?   I can drive 75 on a calm day and not hear the rattling. But, it seems like the disturbance of the normal airflow pattern caused by wind really makes the rattling act up. Even at 30MPH, if it is really windy, I hear the rattle.   Comical to me that the two of us have had the dealer thoroughly check the van for the same problem and come up with nothing!   Good luck!

Replying to: flyabus (Nov 16, 2009 10:11 am) I dont think its the wind. Its just one of those issues that is very difficult to resolve. I wonder if its a bushing wearing out, a strut, etc. Its a popping sound, like the sound of popcorn in the microwave. Lets keep in touch and see if this gets resolved. My van is going to the shop tomorrow and I will re-post if something turns up! Some reason, I'm not optimistic.
