I just purchased a 06 convertible. It’s my very first convertible. My wife fell in love with the car the moment she saw it. We've had less then stellar remarks to make about the car. I fear that buying a demo car was probably a bad idea. Many things wrong with this car were caused by the dealer. All that being said... I wanted to find out if anyone else has ever experienced wind noise from the passenger’s window... this starts to happen around 40mph... And the noise fluctuates. At first I thought it was the top. I thought possibly the catch that holds the top down needed tightened. That isn't the case. When you hold the rubber seal around the small corner piece it causes the noise to stop. Also... the corner piece on the inside of the car seems to be loose. Any insight to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. I love the looks of this car very much... which is why I would imagine so many people own them. |

someone else was having this problem recently. i believe they replaced the offending weatherstrip and the problem was solved.

I tried the lubricant that the service manager suggested...
no luck it still makes the noise. I did notice that the plastic triangle piece on the passenger's side feels loose. I'll mention this when I take the car back tomorrow. They are going to fix a suspension problem. I think it's the drive axle. I saw a post concerning the fact that Turbo models have a balanced drive axle and the other models don't. I mentioned that to the service manager when I talked to him. I hope they get this fixed. We have a lemon law here in PA. That may come in to play if they can't get either of these problems corrected. The dealer is on thier second visit for both. this may get real interesting... |
