Squeaking at 75mph?
I wanted to post this with my other post, but I decided that it needed it's own! ;)
On my trip to Baltimore this weekend, I noticed a weird sound coming from my car. When I hit about 75mph, it would start squeaking. I have never hit those speeds in my own town and this was it's first road trip. It sounds like it is coming from the front. My friends suggested that it could be the wipers on the glass, but I am not too sure if it is or not. I pulled out my celphone... it was the only thing I had around to record the sound. Here is the sound.... http://www.nsoroma79.com/LJ/FitSqueak.wav Sorry for the crappy quality, but I wanted to ask you guys about this sound. Have any of you heard this before or do you know what it could be. I'm kinda scared.:eek: Thanks, Lor |
wind noise ??? there is a TSB about that:
Service Bulletin CUSTOMER INFORMATION: The information in this bulletin is intended for use only by skilled technicians who have the proper tools, equipment, and training to correctly and safely maintain your vehicle. These procedures should not be attempted by “do-it-yourselfers,” and you should not assume this bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle has the condition described. To determine whether this information applies, contact an authorized Honda automobile dealer. April 20, 2006 06-019 Applies To: 2007 Fit – From VIN JHMGD3....S000001 thru JHMGD3....S008480 2007 Fit: Wind Noise at the Top of the Windshield SYMPTOM Wind noise may be heard from the top of the windshield at highway speeds. PROBABLE CAUSE Due to variations in windshield placement, airflow over the windshield molding may cause it to vibrate. CORRECTIVE ACTION Fill the channel above the upper windshield molding with silicone sealant. REQUIRED MATERIALS 3M Black Super Silicone Sealant: 3M P/N 051135-08662 (One tube repairs three vehicles.) 3M General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner: 3M P/N 051135-08984 (One container repairs six vehicles.) WARRANTY CLAIM INFORMATION In warranty: The normal warranty applies. Operation Number: 831004 Flat Rate Time: 0.5 hour Failed Part: P/N 73150-SLN-003 H/C 8325664 Defect Code: 00401 Symptom Code: 00101 Template ID: 06-019A Skill Level: Repair Technician Out of warranty: Any repair performed after warranty expiration may be eligible for goodwill consideration by the District Parts and Service Manager or your Zone Office. You must request consideration, and get a decision, before starting work. REPAIR PROCEDURE 1. Look at the upper, right-hand corner of the windshield for a small round sticker. This sticker was applied at the port to indicate that the vehicle has been inspected, and a repair is not required. • If the vehicle does not have this sticker, go to step 2. • If the vehicle has this sticker, the vehicle is OK, and no further action is required. 2. To protect the paint, apply a 2-inch strip of masking tape to the roof next to the edge of the upper windshield molding. 2 INCH MASKING TAPE 2 of 2 06-019 3. Cut off the tip of the 3M Black Super Silicone Sealant tube applicator at the first groove. Lightly file the outside diameter of the applicator tip so that it barely fits into the gap between the molding and the roof. 4. Using a plastic card (credit card or something similar), pull up the outer edge (lip) of the molding at the middle of the windshield. Working toward the side of the windshield, fill the entire channel under the molding with the sealant. 5. Move to the other side of the vehicle, and then repeat step 3. 6. Lightly push down on the molding to smooth it out and form an even seal. 7. Wait for 5 minutes, and then remove the masking tape. 8. Using a shop towel and 3M General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner, clean off any excess sealant. Cut off the first segment of the applicator tip. Start at the middle and work outward. MOLDING SEALANT |

My money is on the windnoise and the tsb - there was a simular one for side window channels on new Civics. Some guy over at TOV had a sound file up and it wasn't much different than yours! :eek:

It's windnoise. I get that with my Civic at high speeds when there is a crosswind.
