LLLexus Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Just a tip, at 20,000 kms, i noticed mine was getting some external noise coming through the cabin, took me ages to work it out, especially when i was travelling at speed id be hearing external noise bursts... Spoke to a Lexus service Tech and was advised that door trim rubbers can dry out, he suggesting lubricating ( preferably with a silican sprayed onto a cloth ) rubbed around all door trims... Tried it and he was 100000000% right !!! Now no noise... Give it a go, silican spray is like $ 5. and doesnt leave a greasy mess..Nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver Twizt Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 I seem to get it in hot weather.. The seals were lubed and the issue still persisted. Haven't heard it lately though with the cold weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes you find it's the rubber seals around the moon roof. I had the same problem and it took me ages to find with the help of the US guys. When dirt gets in them they will also make rattle type sound. I thought it was crazy at first but clean the rubber seals around the moon roof glass with water. It worked for me. It's cheap and it's free :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
