Default Wind noise

Hi,

I have a problem with my E61 2008 with Panorama sunroof due to noise coming from the windshield. When i pass 80km/h immediately i hear a sound like a window opened from the middle of the windshield. Does anyone encountered this issue before.

Best regards,
Lucian

You sure it's the windshield noise? If you search, quite a few people have found their sunroof seals go dry after a while, and end up hearing noise / leaking. It's an easy fix to replace it from what I recall.

I have read about this and already ordered a new seal. This week I will installed. But I am not sure that is the problem since the noise that I hear seems to come from lower part of the windshield.

Best regards,
Lucian

take some tape, and cover the lower glass edge to see if thats the cause.
