My sunroof is making a lot of wind noise at speed, so it might be time for a new seal (?)

Default My sunroof is making a lot of wind noise at speed, so it might be time for a new seal (?)

At 80mph, I get A LOT of wind noise from my sunroof, and I sure don't remember it being that loud when the car was newer. The seal looks fine, but maybe it just doesn't seal against the roof as effectively as new, so that is why there is so much noise.

Anyone ever replace their sunroof seal....did you notice a big improvement in the noise level in the cabin? And anyone know what these things cost?

Default Make sure the sunroof is adjusted properly...

the front edge should be just under the body and the rear edge just above the body. There are 3 T25 bolts on each side that you use to adjust.

I adjusted it to be perfectly flat, so maybe I'll redo it the way you recommend.
