2 strange noises my H2 makes and how to fix them...

[MattRoberts123]

ok well I think your "speed noise rattling problem" isnt what you are thinking. the outer trim piece that is on the "A" pillars on the outside of the car... (both right and left side of the windshield) is a black piece that runs up to the top of the car to make the trim all look the same. The problem is that where this piece rests on the front of the windshield is NOT air tight. This allows air to get in there and causes the plastic pieces to rattle when going fast.

I have seen 2 fixes. First, take the piece off both sides, line the inside of the piece with 3m tape, then put the pieces back on, and it makes a significant improvement.

Second option was to get black electrical tape, and run a piece from the top of the windshield to the bottom on the front (for each side) have half of the tape on the windshield and the other half on the plastic piece. The tape really isnt visible because of the tinted part of the glass, and this works good too!

Hope this helps


BTW - I used method #1
