Freelander 1 Wind noise with sunroof shut 3rd hardtop

lewis.landy · Mar 25, 2017

Hi all,

I'm pretty confident noise is coming from the sunroof because when i open it the noise changes. Was occuring when i was going around 60mph.

The sunroof is the split manual style.

Can i adjust the glass height? I couldn't see anything obvious, it looks like the front of the sunroofs are fixed.

Maybe a sunroof wind deflector is the best option?

Just open it up and while closing it press the front down. Next chance take the glass of, clean it well and rubbers also.

Thanks for the suggestion, I pushed it down and it didn't do it so I'll take it apart soon

I use various things on the rubbers to keep them subtle (oh er missus)
Leather food/cleaner works well, as does silicone grease.

Thanks for the suggestions, I was going to ask what people used for keeping the seals good.

I clean them with warm water and after drying use silicone spray.
