If your Jeep is as quiet as a Tacoma, you got a good one.I don’t understand the wind noise complaint. My JLU Sport softop has the aerodynamics of a brick and has off-road tires. I did not expect it to be whisper quiet at highway speeds. I came from a Toyota Tacoma, which is also pretty loud I guess. But I am always amazed at how relatively quiet my Jeep is.
Hey i think we have same noise, i taped everything one by one. hit the nail on the head with taping the door to the window frame. tea time whistle shuts up. had to climb through the passenger door to drive it. dealer been giving me a run around with a loaner last 3 months and now w current events they telling me no available loaner again, i put some hvac foam tape inside the window frame, keeps it at bay up to 70 mph, but i dont see anything wrong with the door seal, i really want to try a buddies door and see if it shuts up, if not the window frame needs addressing. if you find any leads on that door seal keep me posted thanksWell mine almost does it all the time now, still have no clue what it is
They replaced the windshield and installed new freedom tops and still have mine....not as bad but still there....so I am just living with it...Hey i think we have same noise, i taped everything one by one. hit the nail on the head with taping the door to the window frame. tea time whistle shuts up. had to climb through the passenger door to drive it. dealer been giving me a run around with a loaner last 3 months and now w current events they telling me no available loaner again, i put some hvac foam tape inside the window frame, keeps it at bay up to 70 mph, but i dont see anything wrong with the door seal, i really want to try a buddies door and see if it shuts up, if not the window frame needs addressing. if you find any leads on that door seal keep me posted thanks
I figured mine out... very easy fix... open the door, look at the channel on the windshield frame, there’s a small gap runs down the window, I added electrical tape running down and it’s all quiet now I’ll take a picThey replaced the windshield and installed new freedom tops and still have mine....not as bad but still there....so I am just living with it...
37/38 on the alpine premium Audio quite a lot...not sure even how my transmission sounds or my motor, or the wind noise outside....sirius xm lithium channel sounds greatI just drove all 3 models of the JLU Wranglers on city streets and mountain driving here in Denver.
When in the mountains at 65 mph and some cross wind, I had quite a bit of wind noise. Sounded like it was coming from the top of the windshield/hardtop seal.
The Sport S was the loudest, while the Sahara and the Rubicon were only somewhat quieter. None had the top liner installed, which I think is odd since CO temps vary from -30 to 100 deg. F during the year from the high plains to the mountains. I know, I've lived here for over 26 years.
You lucky few who are driving your own ( I'm waiting for the 2 dr ), what is your experience?
Hey, this JL is my first jeep. And it definitely has wind noise at highway speeds. How do you know if its normal or too much? Not sure if you can answer this or not, I just assumed it was normal.I had an annoying wind noise coming from the drivers side A pillar. I adjusted the freedom top, played around with the door seals and even adjusted the hinges on the front window, all to no avail. Thanks to Sting-NC-USA (page 60 of this thread), I was finally able to figure it out. It was the stupid plastic triangle thing next to the rear view mirror.
I used electrical tape and taped around the seal, then took the Jeep for a spin down the highway. Walla!!!! Problem solved. I took my Jeep to the dealer the next day and showed them and they ordered me two new ones no questions asked (one for driver side and one for passenger side).
This is my third Jeep and they most definitely do have some wind noise at high speeds or during strong winds. That being said, never let anyone tell you it's a "Jeep Thing". If you have unusual wind noise, just keep searching for the source and you'll find the issue. Best of luck.
Thanks again to Sting_NC_USA. You saved me a lot of headache.
Do you have headliners?Hey, this JL is my first jeep. And it definitely has wind noise at highway speeds. How do you know if its normal or too much? Not sure if you can answer this or not, I just assumed it was normal.
I've owned 3 over the years; 2012, 2016 and 2020. All daily drivers.Hey, this JL is my first jeep. And it definitely has wind noise at highway speeds. How do you know if its normal or too much? Not sure if you can answer this or not, I just assumed it was normal.
I respectfully disagree with this statement. I think the Jeep is considerably louder on the highway than something like a Ford Edge. Most modern crossovers, even ones from mainstream brands, are pretty quiet.Perhaps just slightly more than you would find in a mid level SUV, i.e Escape, Edge and etc.
No worries I probably shouldn't have used Edge as an example, since I haven't owned one.I respectfully disagree with this statement. I think the Jeep is considerably louder on the highway than something like a Ford Edge. Most modern crossovers, even ones from mainstream brands, are pretty quiet.
