Default Re: Anyone else 06 sunroof do this?

My 06' does the same thing, I think its for wind noise on opening only. As said before closing is one step though.

Not to hijack this post, but does your sunroof deflector make noise over 75 mph. Mine starts howling, I think it was to do with the lightbar though?

I took mine off becasue of this. You have to bend those two brackets to make it push down harder onto the roof of the truck but than you risk casuing issues of your sunroof leaking. That happend on my SUT. So this truck has no deflector. The GOBI fairing takes care of that though.

idunno, I drive 85-90mph and I like to have my music loud!

Try removing the light bar and see if it makes a difference...if not...the radio is your friend!

Have you had the infamous windshield pillar trim pieces fixed or replaced? Most wind noise problems seem to come from these. I had the dealership fix mine.

Concerning the wind noise, I thought it waws going to blow off {the deflector on top} so I removed it coated the rubber seal at the bottom with clear RTV silicone and reinstalled with 2 stainless screws and nuts as opposed to those ugly sheetmetal screws on my 2006 H2. No more noise.

Tell me more about the trim pieces. Which ones are you talking about? What is the "fix" for them? Thanks.

I see I am not the only one with some goofy noise coming from what appears to be the sunroof air deflector at speeds of 80+

Is there a good fix for this?? I tend to drive my hummer as if it were a ferrari on the highway, and that damn air noise is pretty annoying!!

Thanks

Happened to me too. Sometimes (very rare), when I close it, the last inches, I have to push the button again and again to get it completely closed.

Bill, the one's referred to are the outside A-Pillar trim pieces around the windshield. Some trucks get a vibration that sounds like a "flapping" noise.

There's a TSB on it, so the dealers are aware of the problem. However, if you wish to repair it yourself, prepare for a 15 minute fix.

Remove the outside A-Pillar trim.

Install a thinstrip of double sided foam tape near the inner, windshield side, edge of the plastic trim where it meets the windshield glass.

Reinstall trim.

Press firmly into place.

That's it.

Very simple and only takes a few minutes.
