So the sunroof lets in a lot of wind and noise when I open it. Anybody have a good, cheap, or even DYI wind deflector for the sunroof? Thanks.

 

There used to be an OEM sunroof wind deflector. It is now NLA.



Is the factory flip up deflectors working correctly? #2 in diagram



Thanks

Cracking the rear windows a bit helps with the air pressure balance and you'll get a lot less turbulence and wind coming in from above.

 

My rear windows don't roll down.

 

He may be referring to the rear sunroof, which in our R53, does Not tilt or move.

 

Got it - thanks!

 

Check weathertech.com they have a wind deflector that might work.

Bought a Weathertech wind deflector five years ago without any regrets. Doing highway speeds with the lid
back is now pleasurable.

 

Can you elaborate some? I am very seriously considering purchase of this deflector as the wind noise with sunroof open is pretty bad - This really cuts down on the noise? Installation as simple as their video?

Thanks and any other comments most appreciated.

Before the wind deflector I could not go above 40 mph with roof back without the noise level reaching deafening proportions. With the Weathertech wind deflector I can cruise at highway speeds and carry on a normal conversation and even hear the stereo. Installation is as simple as illustrated. The quality of the product is excellent and am pleased overall with this product.
