I found a thread talking about crossbar whistle (but at another site I guess this one doesn't allow links to). So not just my setup with the issue. I tried painters tape in a few areas without luck.
Yeah, I haven't figured out yet if it's the crossbars making the high pitched whistle (ie it's more than just wind noise) or it's where the cross bars push the air onto the roof. The fact I put covers on the bars and still hear it suggests the latter. More work to do.
Regarding fixes, I was...
Yes I know if I take them off the sound goes away, that's not a fix! Roofracks can be made to not whistle, especially ones that are designed in congestion with the car. No excuse.
I wasn't in LB for the 110, but rather the desert.
My spec: Launch edition, launch green, 20" AT, underbody kit, crossbars, spare tire.
I am not sure how many of these threads we really need, but it's early days and maybe it helps the next person, and if nothing else it help me keep track of things.
Pros: all the usuals, nothing new...
Same issue, thought I was missing something for a second. Meant to try my ARB hose to see if it was hose or compressor issue.
i’ll also add that the whole housing feels flimsy and cheap.
I take it no one has the nerve to see whats behind that little flat spot. Any other car I might drill there. In for a MagBak, seems the best choice so far.
I went with Chase to make it easy and fast on the 8 steps, 2 weeks later and into the local CU to refi, rates in line with the ones listed here.
Anyone having issues with the VIN or Rivian as a manufacturer. Orange County’s Credit Union system doesn't show it.
Not yet, but i’ll snap some pics. My sense is they will hold up, I wash my cars so i’ll be keeping an eye out. It’s not a solution for those that want a show ready ride, there are little gaps etc. My ideal look would be black, but there is enough grey on the rest of the car to pull this off.
While I would prefer it center mounted, I don't love that "arm" on the SnapPlate so considering this one:
