I’ve been chasing this over the last 2 winters and I’m at my wits end.
During the winter my roof is louder then a 100 yr old house. it’s not the rear window but overhead the main cockpit area. I’m ok with it 90% of the time, it’s a Jeep! But, sometimes it’s so loud it’ll stops a conversation.
Additionally, the older the Jeep gets the more wind noise and cold air can be heard/felt coming through the doors. They’re clean, not worn down. I know I’ve seen it on here but I can’t find the post on how to add additional weather stripping to the door surrounds. Does anyone know the best way to add this?
What I’ve done so far for the creaking roof
303’d all the seals- only last maybe a day.
re seated the roof/freedom panels-no luck.
It’s been to the dealer that I trust they can’t figure out the problem. They tried the first 2 things I did
after researching the forums I came across the idea of lithium grease. So off to the auto store I went, hesitant (don’t want a greasy mess) but ready to grease the hell out of the seals.
while there the service tech who is a fellow Jeeper suggested to try Meguiars hybrid ceramic wax. So we’ll see and I’ll report back as I know there’s others out there having this issue.
any other suggestions are welcomed fo either issue.
TIA
